Clotting and lymph MCQs with solutions

10 of the 14 published questions on this topic, exactly as they appear in a test. Answers and worked solutions come with your result rather than on this page.

  1. Question 1 · difficulty L1 · recall

    A feature distinguishing lymph from blood:

    • A. normally lacks red blood cells and has less protein
    • B. contains more red cells than blood
    • C. has no white cells
    • D. is confined to arteries
  2. Question 2 · difficulty L1 · recall

    The insoluble protein threads forming the clot mesh:

    • A. globulin
    • B. fibrin
    • C. fibrinogen
    • D. albumin
  3. Question 3 · difficulty L1 · recall

    Which plasma protein is converted into insoluble fibrin during blood clotting?

    • A. Fibrinogen
    • B. Albumin
    • C. Globulin
    • D. Haemoglobin
  4. Question 4 · difficulty L2 · understanding

    What is the direct action of thrombin during the clotting cascade?

    • A. It converts fibrin into fibrinogen
    • B. It converts fibrinogen into fibrin
    • C. It carries oxygen to damaged tissue
    • D. It dissolves the platelet plug
  5. Question 5 · difficulty L2 · understanding

    Platelets contribute to haemostasis mainly by

    • A. forming a platelet plug and supporting clotting reactions
    • B. transporting most oxygen
    • C. producing antibodies
    • D. carrying nerve impulses
  6. Question 6 · difficulty L2 · understanding

    Lymph differs from blood mainly because lymph normally contains

    • A. far fewer red blood cells and less protein than blood plasma
    • B. more red blood cells than blood
    • C. no white blood cells
    • D. no water
  7. Question 7 · difficulty L3 · application

    A sample of plasma is allowed to clot and the clot is removed. What is the remaining fluid called?

    • A. Whole blood
    • B. Lymph
    • C. Serum
    • D. Haemolysate
  8. Question 8 · difficulty L3 · application

    Fluid collected from a lymphatic vessel draining the small intestine contains unusually high levels of absorbed lipid. What feature of lymphatic function explains this?

    • A. Lymph converts glucose directly into triglyceride
    • B. Lymph is the main carrier of respiratory oxygen
    • C. Lymph contains more erythrocytes than blood
    • D. Transport of absorbed intestinal fats
  9. Question 9 · difficulty L3 · application

    A cut damages a small blood vessel. Which event helps prevent continued blood loss early in haemostasis?

    • A. Platelet adhesion and aggregation at the injury
    • B. Immediate destruction of all fibrin
    • C. Opening of the vessel lumen
    • D. Complete inhibition of coagulation
  10. Question 10 · difficulty L3 · application

    Fibrin in a blood clot is formed from soluble fibrinogen through the action of

    • A. thrombin
    • B. haemoglobin
    • C. insulin
    • D. renin

Common mistakes in Clotting and lymph

Recorded against questions in this topic that are not shown above, so none of these points at an answer you can see on this page.

  • Thinking lymphatic vessels prevent capillary filtration rather than recovering part of the filtered material.
  • Assuming normal platelets alone are sufficient to complete coagulation.
  • Assumes lymphatics are unrelated to tissue-fluid balance.
  • Assumes all absorbed nutrients enter blood capillaries directly.
