Blood

Front 1

3 functions of blood

Back 1

1.) transport system
2.) Protection
3.) Regulation

Front 2

What does blood transport?

Back 2

*O2 from the lungs to all cells of the body
*CO2 from cells to the lungs
*nutrients from digestive tract to cells
*waster products from cells to kidneys and sweat glands
*enzymes and hormones to various cells

Front 3

what type of cell helps combat infection?

Back 3

white blood cells

Front 4

body fluid loss is caused by

Back 4

clotting mechanism

Front 5

composition of blood

Back 5

55 % Plasma
45% Cellular elements

Front 6

Composition of plasma

Back 6

1.) 90% water
2.) plasma proteins
3.) ions
4.) compounds like glucose and urea

Front 7

3 types of plasma proteins

Back 7

1.) Albumin
2.)Fibrinogen
3.) Globulins

Front 8

function of albumin

Back 8

-helps with transport and blood pressure regulation
-very large, effects osmotic pressure

Front 9

fibrinogen

Back 9

(plasma protein)
-necessary for blood clotting
-when converted to fibrin it forms a clot

Front 10

globulins

Back 10

(plasma protein)
- transport of lipids and helps with antibody formation

Front 11

3 things that make up the cellular elements in the blood that make up 45% of blood

Back 11

1.) Erythroctes (red blood cells)
2.) Leukocytes (white blood cells)
3.) Thrombocytes (platelets)

Front 12

which two cellular elements in the blood make up the "buffy coat"

Back 12

Leukocytes,and thrombocytes

Front 13

1.)function and 2.)lifespan of erythrocytes (RBC)
3.) and description

Back 13

1.) hemogobin for oxygen transport
2.) lifespan= 120 days
3.) no nucleus, stains pink, "bi-concave discs"

Front 14

Neutrophil (WBC)
1.) function
2.) lifespan
3.) description

Back 14

1.) increases in bacterial infections
2.) a few hours
3.) granules= contains enzymes, polymorephoncleated

Front 15

Eosinophil (WBC)
1.) function
2.) lifespan
3.) description

Back 15

1.) fights parasitic infections and allergies
2.) n/a
3.) bi-lobed nucleus, large pink granules

Front 16

Bosophir (WBC)
1.) function
2.) lifespan
3.) description

Back 16

1.) contains histamine, increase in WBC's, affects vascular permeability
2.)n/a
3.) lobed nucleus, dark granuoles

Front 17

Monocytes (WBC)

Back 17

1.) Phagocytosis, moves into tissues and becomes a macrophage
2.) n/a
3.) largest nucleus, blue cytoplasm

Front 18

Lymphocytes (WBC)
1.) function
2.) lifespan
3.) description

Back 18

1.) increased inviral infections, immune defense, fights viral infections

Front 19

Thrombocytes (Platelets)
1.) function
2.) lifespan
3.) description

Back 19

1.) clotting
2.) n/a
3.) resides in bone marrow, small granular fragements

Front 20

where are embryonic and fetal development blood cells formed?

Back 20

yolk sac, liver, spleen, thymus, lymph nodes, and bone marrow

Front 21

in the adult where are blood cells formed?

Back 21

in red bone marrow of:
*ribs, vertebrae, pelvis, head of humerus and femur and in "lymphoid tissue"(lymph nodes, tonsils, and spleen)

Front 22

bone marrow in adults

Back 22

50% red and 50% yellow***

Front 23

where is bone marrow located?

Back 23

in long and flat bones

Front 24

which marrow contains a large number of fat cells?

Back 24

yellow marrow

Front 25

which marrow is blood forming?

Back 25

red marrow

Front 26

what is the bone marrow like at birth?

Back 26

red

Front 27

what is erythropoietin?

Back 27

hormone produced in the kidney that influences the rate of production of blood cells
