E Correct answer
Explanation

The amount of blood loss that may lead to complications depends on the individual person. It is affected by factors such as body size and the presence of certain health conditions such as anemia. Blood count means how much of the oxygen carrying haemoglobin is present in blood. If the count is too low due to heavy blood loss, there is not enough oxygen to be carried to the tissues and the patient will die. Both internal and external bleeding can lead to serious complications.
