plasmin
In healthy blood vessels, platelets do not adhere because the smooth endothelium is coated with ______________.
prostacyclin
What is NOT a function of platelets?
They inhibit procoagulants.
What DOES NOT describe hemophilia?
Males can inherit from either their mother or father. (Occurs predominantly in males, can inherit from mother.)
There are ______ hemostatic mechanisms.
Three
IN the hemostatic mechanism, first _____ spasm constricts the broken blood vessel, reducing hemorrhage.
vascular
Platelet plugs form as a large mass of platelets ______ and undergo degranulation.
aggregate
IN the hemostatic mechanism, Degranulation promotes _____.
hemostasis
IN the hemostatic mechanism , ______finishes the process by clotting the blood and protecting the body from excess blood loss.
coagulation
Repulsion, Anticoagulants or Dilution?It occurs when blood vessels are undamaged.Prostacyclin coats the vessel walls.
Repulsion
Repulsion, Anticoagulants or Dilution?Normal rates of blood flow account for it.Circulatory shock interferes with it.
Dilution
Repulsion, Anticoagulants or Dilution? Antithrombin deactivates thrombin before it can act on fibrinogen.Heparin interferes with the formation of prothrombin activator.Heparin blocks the action of thrombin on fibrinogen.Heparin promotes the action of antithrombin.
