Question

Which of these is not a major protein of plasma?

(a) Keratin

(b) Fibrinogen

(c) Globulins

(d) Albumins

I have been asked this question during an interview.

I'd like to ask this question from Body Fluids topic in section Body Fluids and Circulation of Biology – Class 11

Answer 1

Right choice is (a) Keratin

The best explanation: 6-8% of plasma is made up of proteins while 90-92 per cent of plasma is made up of water. The major proteins present in plasma are fibrinogen, globulins and albumins. Keratin is not a major protein of plasma.
