Prothrombin time will be prolonged due to deterioration of factor V.
Explanation:
Prothrombin time (PT) assess the function of the blood clotting factors which include – vitamin K and factors I, II V, VII and X.
The PT will be longer than the standardized international normalized ratio (INR) if under any blood-thinning medications, absence or deterioration of blood clotting factors, or any inhibitors which inhibit the clotting factors.
While conducting a PT test, the blood sample is taken in a small test tube containing sodium citrate. The sodium citrate is an anticoagulant which will prevent coagulation.
The sample tube should be filled with the blood collected and the tube should also be inverted frequently to prevent any coagulation. The specimen collecting tube with sodium citrate is usually marked with a light blue color.
Sodium citrate is used as the anticoagulant because it keeps the specimen stable with the help of its calcium chelating properties. However, at room temperature the specimen can be stable for about four hours.
Prolonged h and hours will deteriorate the coagulation factor V because the pH of the citrate solution is high mostly above 8.0 and hence prolonging the specimen in it will deteriorate the labile factor V
Question: In the pariental cells, the enzyme carbonic anhydrase causes a reaction between ________ and _________.
Answer: Carbon dioxide and water
Explanation: Carbon dioxide and water are the ones that reacts because of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase.
Evaporative cooler are primarily used in climate where the summer are hot and dry
The evaporative cooler help to keep the home cool and comfortable during warm month example during hot and dry climatic condition. The evaporative cooler device cool air throught the evaporation of water. This device differ from typical air condition system which uses vapor compression or absorption refrigeration.
Answer:
sensor
Explanation:
Homeostasis refers to the ability of an organism to maintain the internal conditions of the body irrespective of the external conditions.
The homeostasis is maintained by the homeostatic mechanism which involves the 3 components which are the receptor or sensor, the integrating centre and the effector or organ.
In the given question, the peripheral chemoreceptors measures and sense the pH of the blood therefore the peripheral chemoreceptor will be considered as the "sensor component" of the homeostatic mechanism.
Thus, the sensor is the correct answer.
