Answer:

C. potassium oxalate for plato / edmentum

Explanation:

I took notes in the class and my notes say -

To prevent blood from clotting, toxicologists add anticoagulants to the blood sample. Anticoagulants such as potassium oxalate (30 mg/mL) is preferred over heparin or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) because both heparin and EDTA interfere with the detection of certain chemicals, such as calcium, in the blood. If the blood is suspected of carbon monoxide poisoning, a layer of liquid paraffin is added over the blood sample. This layer prevents exposure to atmospheric oxygen.

Lunna [17]

Answer:

1. Aorta

2. Left atrium

3. Right ventricle

4. The pulmonary artery

5. Left ventricle.

Explanation:

The aorta is the main artery of the body that carries the oxygen-rich blood to all the body parts except the lungs from the left ventricle. It is divided into main coronary arteries or blood vessels.

The left atrium is one of the heart chambers, it is located in the upper part of the heart on the right side that receives the oxygenated blood from the lungs through the pulmonary vein.

The right ventricle is the chamber of the heart that pumps the deoxygenated blood to the pulmonary valve to MPA to the lungs to get oxygenated.

The pulmonary artery or the main PA (MPA) carries the oxygen-depleted blood from the right ventricle into the lungs, where blood becomes oxygenated.

The Left ventricle is the thickest muscle chamber of the heart responsible for the pumping oxygen-rich blood to the circulatory system and to the body through the aorta.
