27
abnormal hemoglobin pigment combine carbon monoxide that same as oxygen but affinity is 210x greater
Carboxymhemoglobin
28
abnormal hemoglobin pigments where hemoglobin combines with hydrogen
Sulfhemoglobin
29
cannot transport oxygen but can combine with carbon monoxide to form carboxyhemoglobin
Sulfhemoglobin
30
cannot be reduced back to hemoglobin but remains in the cell until it is destroyed
Sulfhemoglobin
31
hemoglobin when exposed to air takes up molecular oxygen forming _____ which is scarlet in color
Oxyhemoglobin
32
is a condition in which the number of red cells or the percentage of hemoglobin or both are below normal
Anemia
33
34
aid the body’s defense against diseases
Leukocytes (WBC)
34
Anemia that develop as a result of some other disturbance in the body; and if the cause is remove the anemia disappears
Secondary anemia
35
Anemia resulting from lack of iron in the diet
Nutritional anemia
35
an anemia in which the activity of the blood building tissue has been decrease
Primary anemia / Pernicious anemia
35
a neoplastic disease arising in blood-forming tissue in which the type cells appear in the blood or are disseminated diffusely through the marrow
Leukemia
36
a process where bacteria become engulfed in white blood cells and they are destroyed
Phagocytosis
37
a condition in which an increase above the normal range of total leucocytes per microliter is observed
Leucocytosis
38
A condition where the leucocyte count is below normal
Leucopenia
39
They are smaller than red blood cells and are biconvex discoid in shape
Platelets
40
important factor in blood clotting
Platelets
41
Blood clotting is due to the action of an enzyme _____ which converts the soluble _____ of the blood into insoluble fibrin.
Blood clotting is due to the action of an enzyme thrombin which converts the soluble fibrinogen of the blood into insoluble fibrin.
42
Thrombin does not exist in an active form in an unlet blood but is present as proezyme called _____
Prothrombin
43
is an intravascular clotting and an antiprothrombin is required

44
are substances that prevents the conversion of prothrombin by thromboplastin
