Question
Answer

🗑
What is an unusual complication that may occur in infectious mononucleosis?   Hemolytic anemia  
🗑
A patient who has a persist leukocytosis, Dohle bodies, and an elevated LAP score most likely has a:   Leukemoid reaction  
🗑
What pools of leukocytes are included in the typical white blood count?   only cells freely circulating  
🗑
What pools of cells is the first to arrive when extra granulocytes are needed in the tissues? Those:   that are marginating.  
🗑
What is the earliest identifiable cell in the granulocyte maturation sequence?   myeloblast  
🗑
What is the earliest stage of maturation where a neutrophil can be distinguished from an eosinophil?   myelocyte  
🗑
What neutrophils are capable of chemotaxis?   band  
🗑
A segmented neutrophil performs all of the following:   chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and pinocytosis  
🗑
A segmented neutrophil can NOT perform:   mitosis  
🗑
What cells are described as a large cell with abundant cytoplasm containing minute granules, lacy chromatin, and an indented or curved nucleus?   Monocyte  
🗑
Which cells are normally produced in multiple sites including the bone marrow, and thymus?   Lymphocytes  
🗑
B cells and T cells are subgroups of what cell type?   Lymphocytes  
🗑
Lymphocytes become transformed when they are:   being stimulated by an antigen.  
🗑

🗑
Opsonization of neutrophils is defined as:   preparing neutrophils to be ingested  
🗑
All of the following are mechanisms by which neutropenia is usually produced:   decreased production by the bone marrow, impaired release from the bone marrow to the blood, and increased destruction  
🗑
The mechanism by which neutropenia is NOT usually produced:   bacterial infection  
🗑
