The answer is B, E, C. Deficiency of factor IX results in failure of thromboplastin production from the intrinsic system.

The factor VIII in hemophilia A is functionally abnormal, due to deficiency of factor VIIIC.

Deficient factor VIIIR associated with abnormal platelet adhesion occurs in von Willebrandt's disease; bleeding from minor trauma occurs, but purpura is not a feature.

Combined deficiency occurs in patients on anticoagulant therapy (A). Deficiency of vitamin K (D) can occur in malabsorption and prolonged obstructive jaundice.
