Blood vessels are visible.

A period of 45 minutes (the singular period would be the subject thus requiring was). Also, it would be the possessive Dr. Smith's

crepitants is plural of crepitant - no such word as crepitance sm
regardless of what it says in AAMT BOS.

It is not a plural form. It is a possessive form. SM
