Mrs. Higgins needs to have major surgery. Two weeks before the surgery, her doctor prescribes EPO. Which of the following statements best explains his reason for doing this? ANSWER: After she takes EPO, Mrs. Higgins's risk of infection will go down because of increased production of WBCs. By prescribing EPO, the doctor can stimulate Mrs. Higgins's body to produce an overabundance of RBCs, which can be harvested and saved for her surgery. By prescribing EPO, the doctor will decrease her hematocrit so that her blood is less likely to clot during surgery. By prescribing EPO, the doctor will be able to increase oxygen levels because EPO causes hemoglobin to bind oxygen more efficiently.

By prescribing EPO, the doctor can stimulate Mrs. Higgins's body to produce an overabundance of RBCs, which can be harvested and saved for her surgery.

Which of the following statements is true about hemoglobin? ANSWER: Each hemoglobin molecule can carry four oxygen atoms. Each hemoglobin molecule is made up of one alpha and one beta chain of polypeptide. All that is needed to bind oxygen is a molecule of heme. Hemoglobin can only bind oxygen.

Each hemoglobin molecule can carry four oxygen atoms.

A hormone that stimulates production of granulocytes and monocytes is ANSWER: thymosin. GM-CSF. multi-CSF. M-CSF. G-CSF.

Gm-CSF

Mary is tested for the amount of hemoglobin in her blood. The test results indicate that her hemoglobin level is 16 g/dL of blood. This value indicates that ANSWER: she may be suffering from a form of leukemia. her hemoglobin level is normal. she has fewer red blood cells than normal. her hematocrit is probably lower than normal. she is suffering from anemia.

Her hemoglobin level is normal

What is the role of transferrin in the cycle shown above? It transports iron ions in the plasma. It activates marrow to increase RBC production. It binds to bilirubin for excretion. It combines with heme to form hemoglobin.

It transports iron ions in the plasma

Which of the following statements about blood is false? ANSWER: Blood is more viscous than water. Cells in blood comprise the formed elements. The normal pH of blood is 6.8 to 7.0. Blood is about 55 percent plasma. Blood contains buffers that control pH.

The normal pH of blood is 6.8 to 7.0.

They are abundant

Suzie was sewing when she accidently punctured her finger with the needle. Several days later, it is filled with pus. Which statement provides an explanation of how the WBCs were able to populate that wound? ANSWER: WBCs move through tissues using amebic motion. WBCs are positively attracted to specific chemical stimuli. WBCs can migrate out of the blood stream. WBCs demonstrate all of the listed properties, allowing them to locate the wound.

You have spent 24 hours traveling from the U.S to New Zealand, on quite a few airplanes with many stops.

A hematocrit value on your blood would be ________ than normal because ________. ANSWER: higher; more plasma proteins are made by the liver higher; you have less blood plasma volume lower; the bone marrow is making fewer red blood cells due to the latitude of the airplanes lower; more red blood are being made by the bone marrow

higher; you have less blood plasma volume
