C) An erythropoietin deficiency is associated with renal failure --> Erythropoietin is produced by the kidneys; its deficiency occurs in renal failure. Erythropoietin is released by the kidneys, not the pancreas. Erythropoietin deficiency causes anemia. Erythropoietin is secreted in response hypoxia, which results in decreased oxygenated blood flow to this tissue
