Thromboplastin required for blood clotting at the place of injury is released by

  1. Blood platelets

  2. Eosinophils

  3. Neutrophils

  4. Lymphocytes.


Correct Option: A

Name the blood cells whose reduction in number can cause clotting disorder, leading to excessive loss of blood from the body

  1. Thrombocytes

  2. Erythrocytes

  3. Leucocytes

  4. Neutrophils.


Correct Option: A

Name the blood cells, whose reduction in number can cause clotting disorder, leading to excessive loss of blood from the body

  1. Erythrocytes

  2. Leucocytes

  3. Neutrophills

  4. Thrombocytes


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Thrombocytes are also called Platelets. They are the vital component of blood. It's basic function is to stop bleeding by clumping and clotting blood vessel injuries. Its main function is to contribute to hemostasis that is the process of stop bleeding by adhesion. Reduction in the number of platelets causes clotting disorder and thus loss of blood from the body.

Hence, the correct option is D.

How many of the following nutrients, follow fol-lowing route of absorption
Blood capillaries $\rightarrow$ Mesentric vein $\rightarrow$ Hepatic portal vein $\rightarrow$ Liver $\rightarrow$ Hepatic vein $\rightarrow$ IVC $\rightarrow$ Heart $\rightarrow$ Body
(i) Glucose
(ii) Galactose
(iii) Fructose
(iv) L-amino acids
(v) D-amino acids
(vi) Long chain fatty acids.

  1. Six

  2. Five

  3. Only one

  4. Three.


Correct Option: A

What will happen if platelets were absent in the blood?

  1. The process of clotting will be affected.

  2. Kwashiorkor will be the result.

  3. RBC will be ruptured.

  4. The blood will become more liquid.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Platelets are the colourless cell fragments present in the blood. They are involved in the clotting. In the absence of platelets, the process of clotting will be affected. If there will be any wound when platelets are absent, the animal will die by shredding of all the blood.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

One of the common symptoms observed in people infected with dengue fever is

  1. Significant decrease in RBC count

  2. Significant decrease in WBC count

  3. Significant decrease in platelets count

  4. Significant increase in platelets count


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
Dengue is a type of fever caused by the dengue virus and propagated by mosquitoes. A significant decrease in the number of platelets is observed in this disease.
Thus, the correct answer 'Significant decrease in platelets count.'

Identity the wrongly matched pairs 

  1. Monocyte - Actively phagocytic

  2. Thrombocyte - Produces antibodies

  3. Lymphocyte - Initiates blood clotting

  4. Eosinophil - Associated with allergy


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Monocytes are actively phagocytic and they take in the invading pathogen or cell through the method of phagocytosis.

thrombocytes are also known as platelet and the main function is in blood clotting. They do not produce any antibodies.
Lymphocytes have to play an important role in the immune system as well as blood clotting. 
Eosinophil cells are also responsible for immunity and are associated with allergic reactions in the body caused due to allergents as well as some infections.
So the correct answer is ' Thrombocyte- Produces antibodies'.

Platelets are formed by .....P ..... of special cells in ....Q.......

  1. P - Division , Q - Bone Marrow

  2. P - Division , Q - Lymph nodes

  3. P - Fragmentation , Q - Bone Marrow

  4. P - Fragmentation , Q - Lymph nodes


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Platelets are formed by the fragmentation of special cells named megakaryocytes in bone marrow cell so answer is option.        

 C. P- FRAGMENTATION , Q - Bone marrow

Megakaryocyte forms

  1. Leucocytes

  2. Erythrocytes

  3. Monocytes

  4. Thrombocytes


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

A megakaryocyte is a large bone marrow cell with a lobulated nucleus, responsible for the production of blood thrombocytes (platelets), which are necessary for normal blood clotting. 

Critical count of platelet is

  1. 40, 000 / mm$^3$

  2. 1 lac / mm$^3$

  3. 2 lac / mm$^3$

  4. 4 lac / mm$^3$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Critical count of platelet is 40, 000 / mm$^{3}$. Platelets, also called thrombocytes, are blood cells whose function is to stop bleeding. Platelets have no nucleus: they are fragments of cytoplasm, which are derived from the megakaryocytes of the bone marrow, and then enter the circulation. These unactivated platelets are biconvex discoid structures. The normal number of platelets in the blood is 150,000 - 400,000 platelets per microliter (mcL). A low platelet count is below 150,000. If the platelet count is below 50,000, the risk of bleeding is very high. So, it is called critical platelet count.
