Blood is the only liquid in the body that is classified as connective tissue. Its function is to transport oxygen, metabolic wastes such as carbon dioxide and nitrogenous waste from the kidneys. Regulation of the body’s pH, body temperature, and maintenance of the liquid volume in the circulatory system. Lastly, protection by way of Leukocyte activation and preventing blood loss by way of the platelets in the blood. Blood is composed of 55% plasma (water, salts, plasma proteins, and other substances that are transported by the blood) and 45% cells (RBC’s, WBC’s and platelets). In the blood, our Erythrocytes (RBC’s) are the most abundant because they carry oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body. Leukocytes (WBC’s) which are the body’s …show more content…
Also, we will analyze and learn to identify the difference in the structure of Erythrocytes (RBC’s), the five different types Leukocytes (WBC’s), and Platelets by using a microscope. Lastly, we will conduct the blood typing experiment, where we will be analyzing and documenting each experimental patient’s blood type results. The overall goal of this experiment was to be able to identify the difference between blood types A, B, O, and AB. …show more content…

Future patient compatibility tests should be done with the consistency of clerical records kept at maximum scrutiny. The pre and post-transfusion grouping of ABO blood samples are significant. DAT alone cannot be used in making a clinical judgment due to the existence of the positive results in about 8% of hospitalized patients.…

    Blood is classified as a fluid connective tissue that travels through the cardiovascular system to provide nutrients to the body’s organs and tissues. Blood is composed of two major components: formed elements and plasma. Formed elements, such as erythrocytes, leukocytes and platelets, are suspended in a watery nonliving fluid matrix that travels throughout the body’s arteries and veins. Leukocytes, also known as WBCs, are primarily used in the defense against diseases and infections; while platelets contribute to clotting factors at the site of vessel wall injuries. Erythrocytes, also known as RBCs, are a major component of O2 delivery to the brain.…

    Lab 4: Osmotic Regulation Of Cell Volume

    Lab 4: Osmotic regulation of cell volume The eukaryotic organism requires homeostasis to maintain daily activities and life. Zooming into smaller units to make up an organism, cells also require homeostasis in order for the organisms to function. Understanding the different balance cells need to maintain will aid us in understanding how cells in organisms successfully maintain osmo-regulations. Eukaryotic cells have selective permeable membrane giving them the unique function of regulating specific molecules between the intracellular and extracellular environment.…

    Explaining The Potential Genotypes Of Corn And Plants

    Sometimes codominance can occur, for example in human blood. Humans have four blood types: A, B, AB, O, which are determined by antigens on the red blood cells. If the red blood cell has antigen A or B, then no antibodies will be produced against the antigen. If a person has antigen-A then the person has type A blood and antibodies clump type B blood cells, and vice versa. If the person has antigen-A and B then the person has AB blood and lacks A and B antibodies.…

    From The Myth Of Race Analysis

    In the dictionary, “race” is defined as any one of the groups that human beings can be divided into based on shared distinctive physical trait. When the Europeans began to mark their territory after settling in America, they began dividing peoples into groups by distinctive physical traits essentially creating the idea of race in the eighteenth century. They acknowledged the obvious differences in the way they looked and how they lived their lives, and used this to create groups and divide people into the groups that suited them the best. Once, the groups were in place, the English established dominance and power over all peoples. Race has been said to consist of biological factors by just about everyone, but through careful research and analysis, it is quite clear that race does not exist, rather it is a social construct made to differentiate…

    In his play Where the Blood Mixes, Kevin Loring illuminates the origins and implications of the legacy of residential schools which remains prevalent in Indigenous communities in the twenty-first century.

This goal is achieved through Loring’s depiction of characters that are sad, but loving and funny people with hobbies, people who are not consumed and defined by their residential school experiences but continue to feel its painful influence nonetheless. Loring presents the characters with charming yet heart wrenching humanity to illustrate…

    Affinity Chromatography Lab Report

    Introduction Affinity Chromatography, also referred to as biospecific chromatography, is a technique of partitioning rooted in biological affinity (Dean). This practice capitalizes on complex interactions such as bond formation between enzymes and substrate, or more broadly: macromolecules and ligands. Purification is at the center of the use of affinity chromatography. In general, samples may be run through a gel that contains a corresponding component that binds with the sample at certain conditions. These conditions vary from acidity level, contending ligands, to ionic strength (Dean).…
