Question #2
Which of the following vitamins is essential for blood clotting?
A. Vitamin A
B. Vitamin E
C. Vitamin C
D. Vitamin K

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin required for the synthesis of clotting factors II (prothrombin), VII, IX, and X in the liver. Deficiency leads to prolonged clotting time and bleeding disorders.

Question #3
Consider statements about human physiology: 1. The kidney filters blood to form urine. 2. The liver produces bile for fat digestion. 3. The spleen produces digestive enzymes. Which are correct?
A. 1, 2 and 3
B. 1 and 3 only
C. 1 and 2 only
D. 2 and 3 only

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
The kidneys are the primary excretory organs, filtering blood through nephrons to remove waste products and excess water, forming urine. The liver is a multifunctional organ that produces bile, which is stored in the gall bladder and released into the small intestine to emulsify fats, aiding in their digestion. The spleen is a lymphoid organ involved in filtering blood and immune responses; it does not produce digestive enzymes (the pancreas does). Thus, statements 1 and 2 are correct.
