Solution

The correct option is A Anemia
Haemoglobin is the respiratory pigment which transports oxygen to the body cells for cellular respiration. Therefore, deficiency of haemoglobin in the blood can affect the oxygen supplying capacity of blood which leads to a deficiency of oxygen in the body cells. It can also lead to a disease called anaemia (decrease in the total amount of haemoglobin or RBCs in the blood).
