The attributing factor in the increased incidence of drug-induced neutropenia is; treatment of cancer by chemotherapuetic drugs such as alkylating agents.
Drug-induced neutropenia is a condition in which there is reduction in absolute neutrophil count (ANC), caused by exposure to a medication. Drug-induced neutropenia usually occurs within the first few weeks after the introduction of drugs. Drug-induced neutropenia is a common adverse effect associated with many chemotherapy agents (drugs used in the treatment of cancer).
Answer:
All the above.
Explanation:
The cell membrane or plasma membrane is made up of lipid bilayer and proteins are inserted in the bilayer. The cell membrane allows the passage of restricted molecule inside and outside of the cell.
The mobility of the membrane can be increased by the level of cholesterol. The high temperature reduces the mobility of layer and at low temperature the cholesterol level increases the membrane mobility. The double bonds and shorter hydrophobic tails also increases the fluidity of the membrane.
Thus, the correct answer is option (d).
