Correct answer: A. Below 1.012
- A. Below 1.012
- B. Below 1.0.10
- C. Between 1.012 and 1.020
- D. Above 1.020Download Reference Apps
Explanation
Transudate forms from increased hydrostatic pressure or reduced plasma oncotic pressure and contains relatively little protein, giving it a specific gravity below 1.012. Exudates generally have a specific gravity above 1.020.
