Given below are two statements :

Statement I :

The coagulum is formed of network of threads called thrombins.

Statement II :

Spleen is the graveyard of erythrocytes.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

1. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct

2. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

3. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect

4. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect

1 answer

Best answer

Answer: 1. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct

Key idea: The clot is made of fibrin, not thrombin.

  • Statement I: the coagulum (clot) is a network of fibrin threads in which blood cells are trapped. Thrombin is the enzyme that converts fibrinogen to fibrin. So Statement I is incorrect.
  • Statement II: the spleen stores and destroys old red blood cells, so it is called the graveyard of erythrocytes. Correct.

So I is incorrect and II is correct: option 1.
