Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The Sysmex 9000 analyzes WBCs by low-frequency direct current and high-frequency current. A scattergram of radiofrequency detection signals (y-axis) versus direct-current detection signals (x-axis) is plotted and yields separation of the white cells through the application of floating discriminators.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The use of hydrodynamic focusing avoids the pitfalls and potential problems when using a rigid aperture. The outer sheath fluid minimizes protein buildup and plugs, eliminates recirculation of cells, and reduces pulse height irregularity and coincident passage loss.

It is believed that the Incas used anesthesia. Evidence supports the theory that shamans chewed cocoa leaves and drilled holes into the heads of patients (letting evil spirits escape), spitting into the wounds they made. The mixture of cocaine, saliva, and resin numbed the site enough to allow hours of drilling.

ACTH levels are normally highest in the early morning (between 6 and 8 A.M.) and lowest in the evening (between 6 and 11 P.M.). Therefore, a doctor who suspects abnormal levels looks for low ACTH in the morning and high ACTH in the evening.
