Q. If you suspect major deficiency of antibodies in a person, to which of the following would you look for confirmatory evidence?
A) serum globulins
B) fibrinogen in the plasma
C) haemocytes
D) serum albumins
Explanation
[Solution from source] Antibodies are immunoglobulins, which belong to the globulin fraction of plasma proteins, so a low serum globulin level would confirm antibody deficiency. Albumins mainly maintain osmotic balance and fibrinogen is a clotting protein, so neither reflects antibody levels. Answer (1).
