Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
Heparin overdosage is treated with protamine. Vitamin K1 is used to treat overdoses of warfarin. Ticlopidine, an antiplatelet drug, and tenecteplase, a thrombolytic, would have no effect on counteracting the effects of warfarin.

Answer to Question 2

Thanks for the answer, I sent you a PM for another one.

Answer to Question 3

Ans: B
Feedback:
A thrombus refers to the formation of a blood clot, sometimes from damage, in a vessel that impedes blood flow. Cessation of bleeding refers to hemostasis. The coagulation cascade is the series of events that occur in the formation of a blood clot to stop bleeding.
