Sample questions from this chapter
A plasma sample clots after fibrinogen is activated, whereas serum from the same person does not. What distinguishes serum?
- It lacks water
- It is plasma after removal or consumption of clotting proteins ✓
- It contains erythrocytes but no ions
- It has more fibrinogen than plasma
Answer: B. Serum is the fluid remaining after blood clots, lacking fibrinogen and several clotting factors. Plasma is collected before coagulation.
Why not A: Serum remains mostly water with dissolved solutes.
Why not C: Both plasma and serum are cell-free liquid fractions after proper separation.
Why not D: Fibrinogen is consumed during clotting, so serum contains less, not more.
A patient with severe liver disease develops oedema and has very low plasma albumin. Which force has been reduced?
- Plasma colloid osmotic pressure drawing water into capillaries ✓
- Arterial pressure ejecting blood from ventricles
- Platelet adhesion at wounds
- Lymphatic smooth-muscle tone only
Answer: A. Albumin retains water within plasma through oncotic pressure. When it falls, filtration exceeds return and tissue fluid accumulates.
Why not B: Arterial hydrostatic pressure can promote filtration but is not supplied by albumin.
Why not C: Platelets mediate haemostasis; albumin chiefly influences fluid distribution.
Why not D: Lymph drainage matters, but hypoalbuminaemia directly lowers capillary reabsorptive oncotic force.
An Rh-negative mother carries an Rh-positive fetus for the first time. Why is a later Rh-positive pregnancy at greater risk without prophylaxis?
- Fetal anti-Rh antibodies cross into the mother
- ABO antigens disappear after birth
- Maternal erythrocytes become Rh positive
- Exposure can sensitise the mother to produce anti-Rh IgG that crosses the placenta later ✓
Answer: D. Fetomaternal blood mixing can prime an Rh-negative mother. In a subsequent pregnancy, maternal IgG crosses the placenta and haemolyses Rh-positive fetal cells.
Why not A: The immune response of concern is maternal antibody against fetal erythrocytes.
Why not B: ABO antigen persistence does not explain Rh sensitisation.
Why not C: Antibody production does not change the mother's inherited red-cell antigen.
