Which consequence results when non-Newtonian blood plasma undergoes cooling?

A)Increased vascular pressure instabilities arise
B)Hemoglobin aggregation causes redox reactions
C)Fibrinogen polymerisation induces clot formation
D)Albumin denaturation decreases oxygen transport

💡 Explanation

Fibrinogen polymerisation induces clot formation because blood viscosity increases dramatically with cooling and non-Newtonian shear-thinning behavior weakens; therefore, the shear stress cannot prevent clot formation, rather than decreased clotting from anticoagulation mechanisms.
