2.
3.
4.
Males are larger than females.
Females’ RBCs are smaller than males’ RBCs.

1.
2.
3.
4.
Dehydration
Hemorrhage
Problems with RBC formation
Anemia
Why is it important that the iron–oxygen
interaction in oxyhemoglobin is weak?
1. So that an irreversible bond forms between
oxygen and the hemoglobin molecule
2. So that oxygen may dissociate into tissues
3. Because RBCs consume some of the oxygen
they carry
4. Because carbon dioxide has a higher affinity
for the iron molecule
There are ~280 million Hb molecules in one RBC. A
single Hb molecule carries ___ molecule(s) of O2,

2.
3.
4.
1/280 million
8/2 billion
2/1 million
4/1 billion
Under normal conditions, what is the fate of the
globular proteins of a recycled hemoglobin molecule?
1.
2.
3.
4.
They are filtered by the kidneys and eliminated in
urine.
They are disassembled into their component
amino acids.
They are stripped of their heme unit and converted
into biliverdin.
They are converted to bilirubin and excreted in
bile.

illness?

2.
3.
4.
He has a vitamin B12 deficiency.
He has more than the normal percentage of
RBCs.
He has an iron deficiency.
He is producing too much intrinsic factor.

What is/are effects of EPO?
1.
2.
3.
4.
The presence of deoxyhemoglobin in the blood/
decreases the rate of hemoglobin synthesis
Blood flow to the kidneys declines/Stimulates
increase in cell division rates of erythroblasts

of RBCs
2 and 3 are correct
What is the nature of and purpose of surface
antigens on RBCs?
1.
2.
3.
4.
Glycoproteins in the cytoplasm/substances that
your body recognizes as foreign
Receptor proteins/they aid the entry of oxygen to
RBCs
Peripheral proteins/they trigger an immune
response
Integral membrane glycoproteins or glycolipids/
substances your immune system recognizes as
“normal”

Christopher has blood type O. What blood type(s) can
he receive from a donor? Why?
1. O/he has anti-A and anti-B antibodies in his
plasma
2. A, B, or O/he has no surface antigens on his
RBCs
3. A or O/he has anti-B surface antigens on his
RBCs
4. None of the above is correct.
Why can’t a person with Type A blood safely
receive blood from a person with Type B blood?
1.
2.
3.
4.
Mixing blood types causes infections in the
recipient.
The anti-A antibodies in Type A’s plasma would
react with Type B’s donated blood.
Type B blood would agglutinate in the recipients
blood vessels and plug small vessels to vital
organs.

Why is it unlikely that the antibodies in a Type O
donors plasma would cause a transfusion
reaction in a Type A recipient?
1.
2.
3.
4.
Surface antigens on RBCs are more important in
determining compatibility.
The plasma portion of donated blood is tiny when
compared to the volume of plasma in the
recipient’s body.
Plasma is not transfused in blood donations.
O blood doesn’t have any antibodies in its
plasma.
Why is cross-matching performed, though both
donor and recipient are known to be the same
blood type?
1.
2.
3.
4.
It reveals the presence of potential cross-reactions
with surface antigens other than A, B, or Rh.
It ensures that neither donor nor recipient is
anemic.
It confirms the HIV status of the donor.
It ensures that the donor does not have WBCs
