RATIONALES
What crystal has large, flat transparent plates with notched
corners and always appear with large amounts of protein, fatty
casts and/or oval fat bodies?
a.Cholesterol crystals
b.Cystine crystals
c.Triple phosphate crystals
d.Tyrosine crystals - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > a.Cholesterol crystals
Cholesterol crystals are large, flat transparent plates with
notched corners and always appear with large amounts of
protein, fatty casts and/or oval fat bodies. They are rarely seen
after a specimen has been refrigerated.

What group contains factors II, VII, IX, and X?
a.Clot retraction group
b.Fibrin group
c.Prothrombin group
d.Thrombin group - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > c.Prothrombin group
The prothrombin group (vitamin K dependent) consists of
coagulation factors II, VII, IX, and X. Vitamin K is essential for the
synthesis of all these factors. Coumarin-type drugs, which inhibit
vitamin K, cause a decrease in these factors.
What is used to evaluate size distribution curve of leukocyte data
and allows visualization of subpopulation of cells based on their
relative sizes?
a.Coefficient of variation
b.Histogram
c.RDW
d.Standard deviation - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > b.Histogram

A leukocyte histogram represents the size distribution curve for
the leukocyte data and allows visualization of subpopulations of
cells based on relative sizes. The display of data includes cell
counts, RBC indices, and WBC differentials.
Which macrocytic anemias are the results of vitamin B12 or folic
acid deficiency, or a combination of both?
a.Hemolytic anemias
b.Iron deficiency anemias
c.Megaloblastic anemias
d.Sickle cell anemias - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > c.Megaloblastic anemias
Megaloblastic changes are characterized by larger cells having a
more open chromatin pattern in the nucleus and by the presence
of larger, hypersegmented neutrophils in the peripheral blood.
The erythrocyte indices are useful in correlating the size and
concentration of hemoglobin of red blood cells. An MCV of 85.0 fL
and MCHC of 33.0 g/dL are indicative of what type of cells?
a.Macrocytic, hyperchromic
b.Microcytic, hypochromic
, Page 4 of 122
c.Normocytic, hypochromic
d.Normocytic, normochromic - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > d.Normocytic,
normochromic
MCV of 20.0 - 100.0 fL is normocytic; MCHC of 32.0-36.0 g/dL is
normochromic.
When performing the Westergren method, fresh anticoagulated
blood collected in sodium citrate is the preferred anticoagulant.
What is the ration of blood to sodium citrate?
a.1 vol of blood to 10 vol of sodium citrate
b.1 vol of blood to 4 vol of sodium citrate
c.4 vol of blood to 1 vol of sodium citrate
d.10 vol of blood to 1 vol of sodium citrate - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > 4
vol of blood to 1 vol of sodium citrate
The ratio is 4 vol of blood to 1 vol of sodium citrate. Blood should
be at room temperature for testing and should be no more than 2
hours old.
A quality assessment program is divided into three components.
Which component deals with review of patient results,
