The color of oxyginated blood
|
Red
|
|
Blood is more _____ than water
|
viscous= higher viscosity
|
|
Blood is slightly alkaline and has a ph factor of __to__
|
7.35 to 7.45
|
|
The sodium concentration in blood is____% of total body's sodium.
Name 3 import factors of blood sodium |
55%
-proper nerve conduction -Passage of various nutrients into cells -maintenance of blood pressure |
|
What is the average volume of blood in the body? Liters? percentage?
|
4-6 liters
8% of the total body weight |
|
What is the amount of sodium in blood grams per deciliter
|
.9g/dcliter
|
|
liquid portion of blood 91.5%; Acts as solvent and suspending medium for components of blood; absorbs, transports and releases heat.
|
Water
|
|
Makes up 7% of blood; Exerts osmotic pressure, which helps maintain water balance between blood and tissues and regulates blood volume.
|
Proteins
|
|
Smallest and most numerous plasma proteins; produced by liver. Function as transport proteins for several steroid hormones and for fatty acids
|
Abumins
|
|
Protein group to which antibodies (immunoglobulins) belong. Produced by liver and by plasma cells, which develop from B lymphocytes.
|
Globulin
|
|
Plasma protein produced by liver. Plays essential role in blood clotting.
|
Fibrinogen
|
|
(other solutes); Inorganic salts. Help maintain osmotic pressure and play essential role in the various functions of cells
|
Electrolytes
|
|
Products of digestion pass into blood for distribution to all body cells. Include amino acids (from proteins), glucose, fatty acids and glycerol, vitamins and minerals
|
Nutrients
|
|
Oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen
|
gases found in blood plasma
|
|
Enzymes, produced by body cells. Hormones, produced by endocrine glands
|
Regulatory substances in blood plasma
|
|
The process by which the formed elements of blood develop is called
|
hemopoiesis
|
|
Derived from the mesenchyme, these cells replenish themselves, proliferate, and differentiate into cells that give rise to all the formed elements of blood
|
Pluripotent stem cells
|
|
Originating from pluripotent stem cells are two other types of stem cells called
|
myeloid stem cells
lyphoid stem cells |
|
Of the stem cells that originate from pluripotent stem cells; these cells begin their development in red bone marrow and give rise to red blood cells, platelets, moncytes, neutrophils eosinophils, and basophils
|
myeloid stem cells
|
|
These stem cells begin their development in red bone marrow but complete it in lymphatic tissues; they give rise to lymphocytes
|
Lymphoid stem cells
|
|
During hemopoiesis the myeloid stem cells differentiate into
|
progenitor cells
|
|
cells that no longer are capable of replenishing themselves and are committed to giving rise to more specific elements of blood
|
Progenitor cells
|
|
The formed elements of blood are
|
red blood cells
white blood cells platelets |
|
Other myeloid stem cells develop directly into cells called
|
precursor cells or blasts
|
|
Precursor cells or blasts, over several cell divisions, develop into the actual formed elements of blood. For example: monoblast develop into _________
eosinophilic myeloblasts develop into __________ myeloblast develop into _________ |
monocytes
eosinophils neutrophils |
|
Precurser cell; PROERYTHROBLAST ejects its nucleus becoming a RETICULOCYTE which in turn develops into a _________
|
Red blood cell
|
|
Megakaryoblast becomes a megakaryocyte which in turn releases _______
|
platelets
|
|
Eosinophilic myeloblast becomes a _______
|
Eosinophil
|
|
Basophilic myeloblast becomes a _______
|
Basophil
|
|
Myeloblasts become a ________
|
Neutrophil
|
|
Monoblast become monocytes which develop into _________
|
Macrophages
|
|
T and B lymphoblasts become
|
T and B lymphocytes
|
|
B lymphocytes become ________
|
plasma cells
|
|
Mature cells consist of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Which formed elements of the blood are cell fragments?
|
Platelets; they are not cells they are fragments from megakaryocytes
|
|
Another word for Red blood cells is _______; the contain the oxygen-carrying protein hemoglobin, which is a pigment that gives whole blood its red color.
|
Erythrocytes
|
|
What gives blood its red color?
|
hemoglobin
|
|
_________is produced by the liver and stimulates formation of platelets (thrombocytes)
|
thrombopoietin
|
|
whats another name for platelets?
|
Thrombocytes
|
|
Leukocytes are classified as either granular or agranular. All your "phils" are granular and all your "cytes" are agranular. Can you name these leukocytes?
|
eosinophil,basophil, neutrophil =Granular
monocyte, T lymphocyte, and B lymphocyte = Agranular |
|
Blood is a connective tissue composed of ________(liquid portion), and _______ _______(cells and cell fragments)
|
plasma
formed elements |
