How are waste products removed from the body’s cells?<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________<\/p>\n 2. The solid portion makes up what percentage of the blood?<\/p>\n a. 55 percent.<\/p>\n b. 45 percent.<\/p>\n c. 7 percent.<\/p>\n d. 73.5 percent.<\/p>\n 3. The spleen is an important source of:<\/p>\n a. Erythrocytes.<\/p>\n b. Granular leukocytes.<\/p>\n c. Non-granular leukocytes.<\/p>\n d. Red bone marrow.<\/p>\n 4. The main functioning part of the red blood cell is the:<\/p>\n a. Hemoglobin.<\/p>\n b. Bilirubin.<\/p>\n c. Erythrocyte.<\/p>\n d. Red bone marrow.<\/p>\n 5. All types of leukocytes will increase due to:<\/p>\n a. Reaction to toxic substances.<\/p>\n b. AIDS.<\/p>\n c. The presence of thrombin.<\/p>\n d. Leukemia.<\/p>\n 6. The prime function of the leukocyte is to:<\/p>\n a. Form a scab following injury.<\/p>\n b. Destroy bacteria.<\/p>\n c. Build bones and teeth.<\/p>\n d. Transport iron.<\/p>\n 7. The chemical which is released from the platelets to cause constriction in trauma\u00a0is:<\/p>\n a. Folic acid.<\/p>\n b. Fibrinogen.<\/p>\n c. Prothrombin.<\/p>\n d. Serotonin.<\/p>\n 8. To form a blood clot, blood parts are trapped in a thread network made of:<\/p>\n a. Prothrombin.<\/p>\n b. Thromboplastin.<\/p>\n c. Fibrin.<\/p>\n d. Plasma.<\/p>\n 9. Dicumarol is frequently prescribed to:<\/p>\n a. Aid in clot formation.<\/p>\n b. Induce vessel constriction.<\/p>\n c. Stimulate the liver.<\/p>\n d. Block vitamin K action.<\/p>\n 10. The most destructive mismatch of any blood group, for transfusion purposes, is\u00a0the group called:<\/p>\n a. Rh.<\/p>\n b. Cartwright.<\/p>\n c. A-B-O.<\/p>\n d. MN.<\/p>\n 11. Why is there a difference between a universal donor (blood type O) and a true\u00a0universal donor (blood type O Rh-negative)?<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________<\/p>\n 1. Waste products are picked up by the capillaries and transported by the blood to\u00a0the excretory organs that then eliminate them from the body.\u00a0(para 1-2b and glossary)<\/p>\n 2. b (para 1-2c)<\/p>\n 3. c (para 1-3)<\/p>\n 4. a (para 1-3a)<\/p>\n 5. d (para 1-3b(2))<\/p>\n 6. b (para 1-3b(1))<\/p>\n 7. d (para 1-6)<\/p>\n 8. c (para 1-7a)<\/p>\n 9. d (para 1-7c)<\/p>\n 10. c (para 1-9) Note: This conclusion can be drawn from the fact than no other\u00a0blood group mismatch will cause the blood to agglutinize.<\/p>\n 11. A universal donor’s blood can be generally accepted, without adverse effect, by a\u00a0person with any A-B-O blood type. If the blood transfused is type O Rh-positive\u00a0and the recipient is an Rh-negative female, it can cause her blood to develop\u00a0antibodies. These antibodies will fight the blood of an Rh-positive fetus she may\u00a0carry during pregnancy.
