25
Electrolytes
Salts like chloride, carbonate, phosphate, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium
26
Red blood cells are…
The most numerous 4.5-5 million per millimeter cubed of blood
27
Red blood cells are destroyed by
Liver or spleen
28
Mature cells are…
Anuclear No nucleus No mitochondria
29
Red blood cells contain
Hemoglobin Binds to oxygen for transport
30
Oxyhemoglobin
Hemoglobin with oxygen Bright red color
31
Deoxyhemoglobin
Hemoglobin without oxygen Darker color
32
Carbon monoxide
Blocks hemoglobins ability to carry oxygen
33
Macrophages
In spleen and liver destroy worn out RBC
34
Heme
Contains iron which is recycled and billrubin which goes to liver
35
Globin
Broken into amino acids and recycled
36
Erythropoietin
Hormone from kidney that is released in response to low oxygen levels in blood
37
Producing RBC requires these three things
Protein Vitamins B12 and folic acid to make DNA iron (to make hemoglobin)
38
Anemia
Deficiency of red blood cells or red blood cells with low amount of hemoglobin Lowers oxygen carrying capacity of blood
39
Hemorrhagic anemia
Blood loss
40
Iron deficiency anemia
Lack hemoglobin
41
Sickle cell anemia
Abnormal hemoglobin
42
Hemolytic anemia
RBC lysis
43
Type O blood
Given to any ABO type (universal donar)
44
Type AB
Blood can receive any ABO type (universal recipient)
45
Rh-positive
Blood has antigen
46
Rh negative
Blood lacks antigen Cant give rh positive blood to a rh negative individual
47
Platelets
Smallest formed element Not cells- no nuclei or DNA fragments released from megakaryocytes
48
Lifespan of platelets
10 days
49
Hemostasis
The stoppage of bleeding Prevents blood loss when blood vessel ruptures
50
Vasoconstriction
Contraction of smooth muscles in blood vessel wall
51
Platelet plug formation
Platelets adhere to surface of broken vessel forming plug
52
Blood coagulation
Formation of a blood clot Requires fibrinogen and calcium
53
Serum
Plasma without fibrinogen and other clotting factors
54
Neutrophillis
Most numerous (58% of WBCs) Increase in number in response to infection Do phagocytosis
55
Eosinophils
Increase in number of allergic reactions Help control inflammation
56
Basophils
Release histamine Promotes inflammation dilates blood vessels Release heparin inhibits blood clotting
57
Lymphocytes
2nd most numerous (34% WBCs) Important in Im unity May form plasma cells: produce antibodies for immunity
58
Monocytes
Largest of WBC 6% total of WBC can form macrophages, large cells important in disposing of invaders and foreign material
59
Leucopenia
Low WBC count less than 5,000 Cause: radiation, shock, and chemotherapy Also flu fever measles mumps or chicken pox
60
Leukocytosis
High WBC over 10,000 Cause: acute infections vigorous exercise great loss of body fluids dress and anesthesia
61
Leukemia
Several types of blood cancer Physiology: uncontrolled proliferation of abnormal or immature wbcs in the bone marrow Results in fewer normal wbc RBC and platelets Caused by mutation of white blood cell causing it to divide uncontrollably
