Which of the following is most likely to happen with the activation of plasminogen?
A) The blood clots, or coagulates.
B) The blood clot dissolves.
C) Red blood cells agglutinate.
D) Jaundice develops.

Accepted Answer

Plasminogen is an inactive form of plasmin, which is responsible for the dissolution of blood clots. Activation of plasminogen results in the conversion to plasmin, which will then break down fibrin clots, leading to the dissolution of the clot. Therefore, choice B is the best answer. Choices A, C, and D are not related to the activation of plasminogen.
