    • Prostaglandins

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Fibrinogens
    Explanation
    Fibrinogens are plasma proteins that play a crucial role in blood clotting. When there is an injury or damage to a blood vessel, fibrinogens are converted into fibrin by the enzyme thrombin. This fibrin forms a mesh-like structure, which helps in the formation of blood clots. These clots prevent excessive bleeding and aid in the healing process. Therefore, fibrinogens are directly involved in the blood clotting mechanism, making them the correct answer to the question.

    Considering RH blood types, which of the below situations would result in maternal antibodies attacking the fetus?

    • Mum is Rh negative and fetus is Rh negative

    • Mum is Rh negative and fetus is Rh positive

    • Mum is Rh positive and fetus is Rh negative

    • Mum is Rh positive and fetus is Rh positive

    Correct Answer
    A. Mum is Rh negative and fetus is Rh positive
    Explanation
    When a mother is Rh negative and the fetus is Rh positive, there is a potential for the mother's immune system to produce antibodies against the Rh factor in the fetus's blood. This can occur when the fetus's blood enters the mother's bloodstream during pregnancy or childbirth. The mother's immune system recognizes the Rh factor as foreign and produces antibodies to attack it. These antibodies can cross the placenta and attack the fetus's red blood cells, leading to a condition called hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) or erythroblastosis fetalis. This can result in severe anemia, jaundice, and other complications for the fetus.

    Correct Answer
    A. Eosinophil

    Which of the following opposes the action of thromboxane A2?

    • Heparin

    • Fibrinogen

    • Plasmin

    • Antithrombin

    • Prostacyclin

    Correct Answer
    A. Prostacyclin
    Explanation
    Prostacyclin opposes the action of thromboxane A2. Thromboxane A2 is a potent vasoconstrictor and platelet aggregator that promotes blood clot formation. Prostacyclin, on the other hand, is a vasodilator and platelet inhibitor that prevents blood clot formation. Therefore, prostacyclin acts in opposition to thromboxane A2 by inhibiting its effects and promoting blood flow.
