Options
- A(A)-(II), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(III)
- B(A)-(II), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(III)
- C(A)-(II), (B)-(IV), (C)-(III), (D)-(I)
- D(A)-(IV), (B)-(II), (C)-(I), (D)-(III)
Correct answer
A. (A)-(II), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(III)
Step-by-step solution
Spleen is known as the graveyard of RBCs. Fibrins form a network of threads in which dead and damaged formed elements of blood are trapped. Thrombin is the enzyme that converts inactive fibrinogens present in the plasma into fibrins. Thrombokinase is the enzyme complex required to convert inactive prothrombin into active thrombin. Therefore, the correct match is (A)-(II), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(III). Swapping the roles of fibrin and thrombin or thrombin and thrombokinase are common points of confusion in the coagu
