Texas State University HIM 2360 Exam 6 Review || All Solutions are
Accurate.
Splenomegaly correct answers enlarged spleen
Antibody correct answers a blood protein produced in response to and counteracting a specific
antigen
Thrombocyte correct answers clotting cells
Hemostasis correct answers stopping the flow of blood
WBC correct answers White blood cells
Hemoglobin correct answers Red cells contain the unique protein hemoglobin, composed of
heme (iron-containing pigment) and globin (protein). Hemoglobin enables the erythrocyte to
carry oxygen.
Lymph Nodes correct answers Collections of stationary lymph tissue which filter lymph and
produce lymphocytes
Natural Killer Cells correct answers aka lymphocytes
T cells correct answers division of lymphocytes that recognize and remember specific antigens
and produce stronger attacks each time the antigen is encountered
Coagulation correct answers (blood clotting) a complicated process involving many different
substances and chemical reactions
, Hodgkins vs non-Hodgkins dz correct answers Hodgkin disease: malignant tumor of lymphoid
tissue in the spleen and lymph nodes (Reed-sternberg cells)
Non: mostly B cell lymphomas and rarely T cell malignancies (NO R-S cells)
ELISA correct answers Screening test to detect anti-HIV antibodies in the bloodstream
Multiple Myeloma correct answers Malignant tumor of bone marrow cells
Adaptive Immunity correct answers The body's ability to recognize and remember specific
antigens in a immune response
Fibrin correct answers Protein that forms the basis of a blood clot
Antigens correct answers a toxin or other foreign substance that induces an immune response in
the body
Platelets correct answers blood cell fragments that are formed in the bone marrow from giant
cells with multilobed nuclei called megakaryocytes
AIDS correct answers Acquired Immunodeficiency syndrome- group of clinical signs and
symptoms associated with suppression of the immune system and marked by opportunistic
infections, secondary neoplasms, and neurologic problems
Eosinophil correct answers contain granules that stain with eosin, a red acidic dye. These
granules increase in allergic responses and engulf substances that trigger the allergies
Hemophilia correct answers Excessive bleeding caused by hereditary lack of blood clotting
factors necessary for blood clotting
EPO correct answers erythropoietin-stimulated by the kidneys-stimulates production of RBC's
