Impaired DNA synthesis arrests cell division, blocking the full maturation of red blood cells.
Symptoms of megaloblastic anemia include fatigue, pale skin, and muscle weakness.
Megaloblastic anemia occurs with either a folate or a B12 deficiency, disrupting DNA synthesis.
Some forms of anemia result from fewer, smaller red blood cells. These individuals produce feces that are light or white in color.Explain why this is expected.
