Solution:

People that born with hemophilia lack or have a low amount of a clotting factor.

Coagulation factors are proteins necessary for normal blood clotting.

Coagulation factors are found in blood plasma. These factors act with Thrombocytes to clot blood.

However, hemophilia is not a decrease in Thrombocytes but a decrease in coagulation factors due to genetic causes.

Diagnosis includes screening tests and clotting factor analysis. Screening tests are blood tests that show whether the blood is clotting properly. Clotting factor tests can reveal a deficiency of clotting factors in the blood plasma and determine the level of severity of hemophilia.

As the coagulation factors are in Blood plasma, we can conclude that the correct answer is:

BLOOD PLASMA

The stage of meiosis in which chromosomes pair and cross over is:
topjm [15]
The answer here is Prophase 1 (A)

In the event of meiosis, Prophase 1 occurs right after Interphase (stage when DNA is replicated). In the Prophase 1 stage, chromosomes condense and pair off and then exchange DNA between each other in a manner of crossing-over homologous chromosomes.  The cross-over procedure forms a X-like region called Chiasmata that holds the homologous chromosomes intact.

Compare the role of mitochondria in slow twitch and fast twitch muscle fibers
xz_007 [3.2K]
The slow twitch muscle fibres have a higher count of mitochondria which means it can process quicker, it receives a energy, it receives a good blood supply since it has a high amount of capillaries, which means it has a good supply of oxygen, which helps to maintain the use of the aerobic energy system for longer, making type 1 fibres  more effect for endurance, while the type 2 fast twitch have less mitochondria and rely more on glycolysis.
