The correct Answer is:
To determine which pair of terms represents the same thing, we will analyze each option provided in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Option 1: Plasma and Serum** - **Plasma** is the liquid component of blood that contains water, electrolytes, proteins (including fibrinogen), hormones, and waste products. It is the medium in which blood cells (RBCs, WBCs, platelets) are suspended. - **Serum** is the fluid that remains after blood has clotted, meaning it is plasma without the clotting factors (like fibrinogen) and blood cells. - **Conclusion**: Plasma and serum are not the same; they have different compositions. 2. **Option 2: Atrioventricular Node and Pacemaker** - The **Atrioventricular (AV) Node** is a part of the heart's electrical conduction system, located between the atria and ventricles, and helps regulate the heartbeat. - A **Pacemaker** is an artificial device implanted in the heart to control abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias). - **Conclusion**: The AV node is a natural part of the heart, while a pacemaker is an artificial device. They do not represent the same thing. 3. **Option 3: Leukocytes and Lymphocytes** - **Leukocytes** are a broad category of white blood cells (WBCs) that play various roles in the immune system. - **Lymphocytes** are a specific type of leukocyte that is primarily involved in the immune response. - **Conclusion**: While lymphocytes are a type of leukocyte, the terms are not synonymous. They represent different scopes of white blood cells. 4. **Option 4: Mitral Valve and Bicuspid Valve** - The **Mitral Valve** is located between the left atrium and left ventricle of the heart and regulates blood flow from the atrium to the ventricle. - The **Bicuspid Valve** refers to the same valve, named for its two cusps (flaps). - **Conclusion**: Mitral valve and bicuspid valve are two names for the same structure in the heart. ### Final Answer: The correct pair of terms that represent the same thing is **Mitral Valve and Bicuspid Valve**. ---
