Phil is selecting a vein for venipuncture. After applying a tourniquet, and palpating the vein, he is sure he has found a suitable vein. The chosen vein feels very big and cord-like. Has Phil made a good choice?

Explanation

Answer: B - No, Phil has not made a good choice. Veins that feel cord-like are thrombosed. Along with feeling cord-like, thrombosed veins will easily roll away when palpated. They are not a good choice for collecting blood.
