One of the functions of blood is to regulate fluid levels in the body. If too much fluid escapes from the bloodstream and enters the tissues, blood pressure will
 
  A. increase.
  B. decrease.



(Question 2) The smallest and most abundant plasma proteins are the
 
  A. globulins.
  B. endocrine hormones.
  C. albumins.
  D. fibrinogens.
  E. prothrombins.



(Question 3) If someone with kidney damage was losing lots of protein in their urine, what would happen to colloid osmotic pressure and how might it lead to edema (swelling) of body tissues?
 
  What will be an ideal response?



(Question 4) Platelets are formed elements.
 
  Indicate whether this statement is true or false.



(Question 5) A malnourished person might have abnormally low levels of plasma proteins. As a result, colloid osmotic pressure
 
  A. increases, and there is fluid retention in the interstitial space.
  B. increases, and so blood volume is abnormally high.
  C. decreases, and there is fluid retention in the interstitial space.
  D. decreases, and so blood volume is abnormally high.



(Question 6) Leukocytes are the _______ of the formed elements, and leukocytes have ______________.
 
  A.  largest, no nucleus
  B.  largest, prominent nuclei
  C.  smallest, no nucleus
  D.  smallest, prominent nuclei



(Question 7) The percentage of volume of red blood cells is called the _______________.
 
  Fill in the blank with correct word.



(Question 8) The most numerous of the formed elements are the
 
  A. neutrophils.
  B. platelets.
  C. erythrocytes.
  D. basophils.
  E. albumins.



(Question 9) The clinical definition of the hematocrit refers to the percentage of
 
  A. erythrocytes in the blood.
  B. leukocytes in the blood.
  C. platelets in the blood.
  D. plasma in the blood.
  E. all formed elements in the blood.



(Question 10) A comparison of the clinical hematocrit and true hematocrit would indicate that
 
  A. the clinical hematocrit is much larger.
  B. the true hematocrit is much larger.
  C. their values are very similar.
