Vitamin K
Correct Answer
C. UrokinaseExplanation
Urokinase is a substance responsible for degrading the fibrin clot. It is an enzyme that activates the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin, which then breaks down the fibrin clot. PAR 1,3,4 are receptors involved in platelet activation and aggregation. Factor IIa is also known as thrombin, which is involved in the clotting cascade. Factor I is also known as fibrinogen, which is converted to fibrin to form the clot. vWF (von Willebrand factor) is a protein involved in platelet adhesion. Vitamin K is a nutrient required for the production of clotting factors.Rate this question:

Vitamin K
Correct Answer
B. Factor IIaExplanation
Factor IIa, also known as thrombin, is the correct answer for this question. Thrombin is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the process of blood clotting. It converts fibrinogen, a soluble protein, into fibrin, which forms the structural framework of blood clots. PAR 1,3,4 refers to protease-activated receptors, which are activated by thrombin. Urokinase, vWF, and Vitamin K are not directly involved in the hydrolysis of fibrinogen to fibrin.Rate this question:
