platelet
megakaryocyte
macrophage
monocyte
question 12

any disease condition involving the cells in the blood is called:
pancytopenia
blood dyscrasia
anisocytosis
septicemia

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • First question:
  • Platelets (thrombocytes) are small cell - fragments. Megakaryocytes are large cells in the bone marrow. As megakaryocytes mature, their cytoplasm fragments at the edges to form individual thrombocytes (platelets). Macrophages are phagocytic cells that engulf pathogens and debris. Monocytes are a type of white blood cell that can differentiate into macrophages or dendritic cells.
  • Second question:
  • Pancytopenia is a condition where there is a decrease in all blood cell types (red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets). Blood dyscrasia is a general term for any disease condition involving the cells in the blood. Anisocytosis refers to the presence of red blood cells of unequal size. Septicemia is a serious infection where pathogens are present in the blood.

Answer:

  • First question: megakaryocyte
  • Second question: blood dyscrasia
