1.

RBCs have the ability to concentrate hemoglobin in the cell fluid up to about 34 grams in
each 100 milliliters of cells and the concentration does not rise above this value.
2. When hemoglobin formation is deficient, the percentage of hemoglobin in the cells may
fall considerably and the volume of the RBC will increase.
3. The bone marrow of essentially all bones produces RBCs until a person is 20 years old
4. Erythropoietin is secreted mainly by fibroblast-like interstitial cells surrounding the
tubules in the cortex and outer medulla.
5. At least four major of growth inducers that promote growth and differentiation of the
cells have been described.
6. The reticulocyte still contains of remnants of the Golgi Apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum,
and mitochondria.
7. Norepinephrine, epinephrine and prostaglandins stimulate erythropoietin production.
8. Deficiency of vitamin B12 and folic acid causes RBC larger than normal that often
irregular, large, oval, and uncapable of carrying oxygen normally.
9. RBCs have cytoplasmic enzymes that are capable to form ATP.
10. The granulocytes and monocytes are formed only in the bone marrow
11. In times of serious tissue infection, the total life span of granulocytes is often longer
because they perform their function.
12. If the tissue’s surface is rough, the likelihood of phagocytosis is increased.
13. After digesting particles, neutriphils becomes inactivated and dies.
14. Within minutes after inflammation begins, large numbers of neutrophils begin to invade
the inflamed area from the blood.
15. The T lymphocytes are preprocessed in the liver during mid fetal life and in the bone
marrow in late fetal life and after birth.
16. All lymphocytes in the body originate from lymphocyte-committed stem cells of the
embryo and capable of forming directly either activated T lymphocytes or antibodies.
17. the B lymphocytes have greater diversity than the T lymphocytes
18. immunization is usually accomplished by injecting antigen in a dose with one period.
19. The variable portion is the portion that attaches specifically to a particular type of
antigen.
20. The direct actions of antibodies are strong enough and play a major role in protecting
the body against the invader.
21. People with HIV/AIDS have the cytotoxic T cell that are inactivated
22. People with type o blood, that containing no agglutinogens, does not contain both anti-
A and anti-B agglutinins.
23. the ratelimiting factor in causing blood coagulation is usually the formation of
prothrombin activator
24. The normal prothrombin time is about 12 seconds.
25. If the kidney fails to produce prothrombin, in a day or so prothrombin concentration in
the plasma falls too low to provide normal blood coagulation. S
