Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
A light source of specified wavelength is made to pass through plasma; some light normally gets through to the detector. As a fibrin clot forms, the amount of light detected decreases. When light decreases to a predetermined deflection from the baseline, the timer stops, indicating clot formation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Diagnostica Stago coagulation instruments use a mechanical end-point clot detection principle. These instruments magnetically monitor the movement of a steel ball within plasma. As the clot forms, the sensor detects the slowing of the ball.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
