Erythroblastosis foetalis occurs when an Rh-negative mother carries an Rh-positive foetus. What happens if this condition is left untreated in a subsequent pregnancy?
1. The foetus may suffer from severe anaemia and jaundice due to maternal Rh antibodies attacking fetal RBCs.
2. The mother’s immune system remains unresponsive to Rh-positive RBCs in subsequent pregnancies.
3. The foetus develops an overproduction of RBCs to counteract maternal antibodies.
4. The condition only affects the first pregnancy, with no impact on later pregnancies.

What is the function of thrombokinase in blood clotting?
1. Thrombokinase directly converts fibrinogen into fibrin, which forms a clot.
2. Thrombokinase is an enzyme complex that converts prothrombin into thrombin, which subsequently converts fibrinogen into fibrin.
3. Thrombokinase prevents clot formation by inhibiting thrombin activity.
4. Thrombokinase dissolves clots by breaking down fibrin into smaller fragments.
