Question 1 of 5
How is plasminogen converted into active plasmin?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: By binding to fibrin. Plasminogen is converted into active plasmin by binding to fibrin through the tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). This binding triggers the activation of plasminogen into plasmin, which then degrades fibrin clots. The other choices (B: collagen, C: heparin, D: platelets) are incorrect because plasminogen activation specifically involves binding to fibrin to initiate the fibrinolytic cascade. Collagen, heparin, and platelets do not play a direct role in the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin.
