Question

In man, the normal blood pressure is maintained by the blood protein, called as

• A. Haemoglobin
• B. Albumin
• C. Fibrinogen
• D. Heparin

Answer 1

The correct option is B Albumin

Human serum albumin can be traced in human blood plasma. The liver produces the serum albumin. Albumin constitutes about half of the blood serum protein. The reference range for albumin concentrations in serum is approximately 35 - 50 g/L. One of the functions of albumin is to maintain intravascular oncotic (colloid osmotic) pressure.

So, the correct answer is option B.
