Question

Match the following blood components with their function(s).

$\begin{array}{cc}ColumnI& ColumnII\\ 1.\text{RBC}& a.\text{Transport of energy and electrolytes}\\ 2.\text{WBC}& b.\text{Blood clotting}\\ 3.\text{Platelets}& c.\text{Immunity and Defense}\\ 4.\text{Plasma}& d.\text{Transport of gases}\end{array}$

• A. 1.$\Rightarrow$ d, 2.$\Rightarrow$ c, 3.$\Rightarrow$ b, 4.$\Rightarrow$ a.
• B. 1.$\Rightarrow$ a, 2.$\Rightarrow$ b, 3.$\Rightarrow$ c, 4.$\Rightarrow$ d.
• C. 1.$\Rightarrow$ c, 2.$\Rightarrow$d, 3.$\Rightarrow$ a, 4.$\Rightarrow$ b.
• D. 1.$\Rightarrow$ b, 2.$\Rightarrow$ a, 3.$\Rightarrow$ d, 4.$\Rightarrow$ c.

Answer 1

The correct option is A

1.$\Rightarrow$ d, 2.$\Rightarrow$ c, 3.$\Rightarrow$ b, 4.$\Rightarrow$ a.

The correct combination of functions of blood components is:

1. RBC plays an active role in the transport of gases.

2. WBC plays an active role in immunity and defense.

3. Platelets play an active role in blood clotting.

4. Plasma plays an active role in the transport of glucose and electrolytes.
