- BAmino acids
- CGlobin
4In which layer would the platelets and leukocytes be found?
- ATop
- BMiddle
- CBottom
5How do you differentiate a R.B.C from a reticulocyte?
- AR.B.C's do not contain RNA
- BReticulocytes don't have a nucleus
- CReticulocytes have more Hb
6Blood samples must be mixed before testing to imitate patient blood consistency

- BFalse
7How does the principle of cell conducting work?
- AR.B.C's are poor conductors of electricity, and so when passing through an aperture will stop the current
