2) erythrocyte
3) proerythroblast
4) erythropoietin
5) myeloblast
3) proerythroblast
Pick the INCORRECT statement:. Erythropoiesis:
1) requires a healthy amino acid diet.
2) requires vitamin B12 and folate.
3) is inhibited by erythropoietin.
4) is stimulated when oxygen decreases in the blood.
3) is inhibited by erythropoietin.
Erythroblastosis details, also called, Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn:
1) Kills the baby around the 5th or 6th month of pregnancy.
2) Typically does not occur until the second Rh-positive pregnancy of the Rh-negative mother.
3) Only occurs when mom is Rhesus positive and her baby is Rhesus negative.
4) Can be prevented with an injection that stops the formation of Rhesus antibodies in the developing baby.
2) Typically does not occur until the second Rh-positive pregnancy of the Rh-negative mother.

2) on erythrocytes, in the plasma
3) on leukocytes, in the plasma
4) in the plasma, on erythrocytes
5) in the plasma, on leukocytes
2) on erythrocytes, in the plasma
A person with blood type AB has:
1) A and B antigens on the red blood cells, and A and B antibodies in the plasma.
2) A antibodies in the plasma and B antigens on the red blood cells.
3) A and B antigens on the red blood cells and no antibodies in the plasma.
4) A and B antigens, and A and B antibodies in the plasma.
3) A and B antigens on the red blood cells and no antibodies in the plasma.
