    Hint

    Blood types are determined by the presence or absence of certain antigens. There are 4 main blood groups – A, B, AB and O. Blood group is determined by the genes inherited from the parents. AB-positive blood type is known as the “universal recipient” because AB-positive patients can receive red blood cells from all blood types.

  2. Question 2 of 50
    2. Question

    The vitamin that helps in blood clotting is:

    Hint

    Vitamin K is a group of vitamins that the body needs for blood clotting. Blood clotting or coagulation prevents excessive bleeding internally and externally.

  3. Question 3 of 50
    3. Question

    Which of the following is a perfect match?

    Hint

    Atherosclerosis is a narrowing or blockage of artery walls usually caused by the buildup of fatty material called plaque. Coronary artery disease is a narrowing or blockage of coronary arteries. Hypertension, also known as low blood pressure, increases the risk of a heart attack. Hypotension (or low blood pressure) is a blood pressure under 90/60 mm/Hg.

  4. Question 4 of 50
    4. Question

    Which of the following is correct about cold-blooded animals?

    Hint

    cold-blooded animals’ body temperature remains constant all the time. They cannot regulate their internal body temperature with the change in the environment. Animals, such as reptiles, fishes, and amphibians, cannot control their body temperature and therefore become sluggish in cold weather.

  5. Question 5 of 50
    5. Question

    If the blood group of one parent is AB and that of the other O, the possible blood group of their child could be:

    Hint

    Each biological parent donates one of two ABO genes to their child. The A and B genes are dominant and the O gene is recessive. For example, if an O gene is paired with an A gene, the blood type will be A. Parents with AB and O blood types can either have children with blood type A or blood type B. Two O blood type parents can produce a child with only O blood type. Two parents with A blood type can produce a child with either A or O blood types.

  6. Question 6 of 50
    6. Question

    How many bones are there in the human body?

    Hint

    The human skeleton of an adult consists of around 206 bones. There are typically around 270 bones in human infants, which fuse to become 206 to 213 bones in the human adult.
