| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Howell Jolly Bodies are the remnants of nuclear bodies and are commonly seen with splenic disorders | true |
| Heinz Bodies are frequently seen in animals with onion toxicity | true |
| Anemia is seldom the primary condition | true |
| Only males can have active Hemophilia | true |
| Platlets play a large role in clot retraction | true |
| Thrombocytes release histmines that act as a vasoconstrictor | true |
| A nucleated red blood cell is an immature cell | true |
| The average lifespan for erythrocytes in canines is | one hundred to one hundred and twenty days |
| Erythrocyte maturation occurs in the | bone marrow |
| The meaning of pyknotic is | programmed cell death |
| The definition of polycythemia is | increase in the number of RBC |
| The definition of hemoconcentration is | increase in the amount of hemoglobin |
| This organ plays a role in erythropoietin production | Kidneys |
| The definition of anisocytosis is | A variation in the size of RBC |
| The definition of Polychromasia is | A variation in the color of RBC |
| The definition of Poikilocytosis is | A variation in the shape of RBC |
| An increase in nucleated red blood cells indicates | regenerative anemia |
| Acute hemorrhage usually follows | surgical procedures |
| The definition of hydremia is | decrease in the amount of hemoglobin |
| A common cause of chronic blood loss anemia is | parasitism |
| In this type of anemia the bone marrow responds inadequately to a need for erythrocytes | non-regenerative anemia |
| This is the multi potential stem cell that is a precursor to thrombocyte production | megakaryocyte |
| The erythrocyte is composed of __ percent of water | sixty to seventy percent |
| This breed of canine has a genetic predisposition to IMHA | female Cocker Spaniel |
| This vitamin metabolism is effected by rodent poison | vitamin k |
| Von Willebrand's Disease is an example of | congenital coagulation disorder |
| A macrocyte is a/an | large cell |
| A microcyte is a/an | small cell |
| This white blood cell is the first line of defense | segmented neutrophil |
| In this mature cell, the nucleus is round and occupies most of the cell | lymphocyte |
| This white blood cell's primary function is to deactivate histamines | eosinophil |
| petechial hemorrhage | tiny hemorrhage |
| epistaxis | nose bleed |
| hematuria | bloody urine |
| ischemia | large subcuticular hemorrhage |
| melena | skin pigment |
| clotting factors | plasma |
| no clotting factors | serum |
| liquid tissue | blood |
| List four categories of anemia | blood loss, excessive destruction of the erythrocyte, nutritional defenciency, depression of bone marrow |
| List the three factors involved with hemostasis | vascular factors, thrombocytes, clotting mechnisms |
| Define hematopoiesis | production of blood cells and platelets |
| What is the difference between plasma and serum? | Plasma has clotting factors. Serum is fluid with no clotting factors. |
