Plasma proteins in the body play a definitive role and that is vital to the functioning of blood units and the whole body. Fibrinogen is the clotting factor and it helps certain blood components form a clot at the site of an injury. Albumin is a protein that is responsible for the osmosis of the plasma. Globulins are responsible for immunity.
(b)
Interpretation:
The role of globulins needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Plasma proteins in the body play a definitive role and without these functions, the body would not be able to survive for much later. Globulins are responsible for immunity. Fibrinogen is the clotting factor and it helps certain blood components form a clot at the site of an injury. Albumin is a protein that is responsible for the osmosis of the plasma.
(c)
