Kidney damage can result in

Easy

A

uremia and anaemia.
B

uremia and polycythemia.

D

Solution

Urea is normally removed from blood by the kidneys, but when kidney function slows down, the urea level rise leading to uremia.
Kidneys are also involved in the production of a hormone erythropoietin. It helps in production of RBCs. When kidneys are damaged, anemia (low levels of RBCs) can occur.
