Question

Which of the following blood plasma proteins is correctly matched with its function?

• A. Albumin : Maintain water level and osmolarity of blood
• B. Globulin : Helps to provide antibody mediated immunity $\left(\right.\text{AMI}\left.\right)$
• C. Fibrinogen : Helps in coagulation of blood.
• D. All of these

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

There are three main types of plasma proteins:

• Albumin: It retains water level in plasma, therefore, maintains osmolarity.
• Globulin: It is the protein of plasma as antibodies or immunoglobulin molecules that provide $\text{AMI}$ .
• Fibrinogen: This plasma protein is converted into fibrin threads by thrombin enzyme at the time of blood coagulation/clotting.
