Question
The true statement among these is: Women have a higher hematocrit value than men. Antibodies are made by the liver. The universal donor is blood type AB. IgE is increased in allergic and parasitic conditions.
Solution
The true statement among these is: "IgE is increased in allergic and parasitic conditions."
Here's why:
-
"Women have a higher hematocrit value than men." - This statement is false. Men typically have higher hematocrit values than women.
-
"Antibodies are made by the liver." - This statement is also false. Antibodies are produced by B cells, which are a type of white blood cell, not the liver.
-
"The universal donor is blood type AB." - This statement is false. The universal donor is blood type O.
-
"IgE is increased in allergic and parasitic conditions." - This statement is true. Immunoglobulin E (IgE) is a type of antibody that is increased in the body during allergic reactions and parasitic infections.
