Which of the following factors do not determine the Blood viscosity?(a) Color(b) Erythrocyte deformability(c) Plasma viscosity(d) TemperatureI had been asked this question during an online exam.Origin of the question is Viscosity Measurement in section Fluid Flow and Mixing of Bioprocess Engineering

Answer»

Right option is (a) Color

To explain I WOULD say: Five primary factors determine blood viscosity. These include hematocrit, erythrocyte deformability, plasma viscosity, erythrocyte aggregation, and temperature. Hematocrit is the most obvious determinant of WBV. A higher PERCENTAGE of RED blood CELLS (RBCs) results in thicker blood.
