Ferritin

A

How iron is stored as in the liver spleen and gut

25
Q

Jaundice

A

Increase concentration of bilirubin. Bilirubin can accumulate and deposit in the whites of eyes, nail beds, and skin. Caused by liver damage, bile duct obstruction.

A

Less than normal Hemoglobin

33
Q

Hematoma

A

accumulation of blood in tissues

34
Q

white thrombus

A

platelet plug

35
Q

tetrodotoxin

A

an extremely potent inhibitor of sodium channels that puffer fish make

36
Q

hydrocephalus

A

increased pressure inside the central nervous system; occurs with increase in the CSF which doesn’t leave, putting pressure on the brain.

37
Q
