D: Increased FDP, prolonged PT, reduced platlets
Answer: D: Increased FDP, prolonged PT, reduced platlets 
Explanation: In disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), coagulation is usually activated when blood is exposed to tissue factor. Severe, rapid-onset DIC causes severe thrombocytopenia, prolonged PT and PTT, a rapidly declining plasma fibrinogen level, and a high plasma d-dimer level Fibrinogen degradation product (FDP) testing is commonly used to aid in the diagnosis of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Increases in serum FDP levels can be caused by the following : DIC. Post fibrinolytic therapy. Ref Davidson 23rd edition pg 876
