VERIFIED ANSWERS
Question 1
Hematopoiesis
Correct Answer
blood cell formation
Fetus- liver and spleen
Adult- bone marrow
Question 2
Anemia
Correct Answer
A condition in which the blood is deficient in red blood cells, in hemoglobin, or in total volume.
Question 3
Erythropoiesis
Correct Answer
formation of red blood cells
In kidney in response to hypoxia
Question 4
macrocytic normochromic anemia
Correct Answer
Large RBC's, normal hemoglobin
Folic acid or Vitamin B12 deficiency
Trusted by thousands of students and professionals worldwide Page 1 of 16
,Question 5
microcytic hypochromic anemia
Correct Answer
small, abnormally shaped erythrocytes that are not able to carry normal hemoglobin
Thalassemia- mediterranean
Question 6
normocytic normochromic anemia
Correct Answer
Characterized by red cells that are relatively normal in size and normal hemoglobin
Aplastic, hemorrhagic, hemolytic, sickle cell
Question 7
iron deficiency anemia
Correct Answer
anemia resulting when there is not enough iron to build hemoglobin for red blood cells
Affects children, poverty, child bearing age
Question 8
Erythrocytes
Correct Answer
red blood cells
Most abundant cell in the body
Responsible for tissue oxygenation
Mitotic division- 100-120 days
Question 9
sickle cell anemia
Correct Answer
A genetic disorder in which erythroctyes take on an abnormal curved or "sickle" shape (Hb-s)
Question 10
Thalassemia
Correct Answer
Inherited defect in the ability to produce hemoglobin, usually seen in persons of Mediterranean background.
Question 11
pernicious anemia
Correct Answer
Lack of mature erythrocytes caused by inability to absorb vitamin B12 into the bloodstream
Trusted by thousands of students and professionals worldwide Page 2 of 16
, Question 12
hemolytic anemia
Correct Answer
Characterized by an inadequate number of circulating red blood cells due to the premature destruction of red blood cells
by the spleen
Pancytopenia- reduction in all 3 types of blood cells (RBC, WBC, Plt)
Question 13
Erythropoietin (EPO)
Correct Answer
Hormone secreted by the kidney to stimulate the production of red blood cells by bone marrow
In response to hypoxia
In the fetus the liver produces this
Question 14
Hemoglobin
Correct Answer
Iron-containing protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen for delivery to cells
4 molecules of O2
Made of polypeptide, heme, iron
Question 15
anemia due to gastrectomy
Correct Answer
Iron def anemia is major cause after this
Removal of stomach often leads to marked decrease in production of gastric acid. This acid is necessary to convert dietary
iron to a form that is more readily absorbed by the duodenum
Question 16
hemolytic anemia causes
Correct Answer
Sickle cell disease, ABO or Rh incompatibility, drug induced
