C) leukemia
D) aplastic anemia
D
Explanation: RBCs are red blood cells. The other forms of anemia are iron-deficiency anemia, caused by a lack of available iron, resulting in the body's inability to make adequate amounts of hemoglobin; and sickle cell anemia, in which the hemoglobin is defective within cells, resulting in misshaped red blood cells that cause obstructions in blood vessels. Leukemia is a tumor of the marrow resulting in abnormal white blood cells.
