17
Q

In order to create Reticulocyte, what should be removed late Erthyroblast?

A

Nucleus / Nuclei

18
Q

When RBC is already mature, there is no nucleus or nuclei present anymore to?

A

contain more oxygen and other minerals

19
Q

The abnormality in the production of RBC and can also affect other cells

A

Sickle cell anemia

19
Q

The abnormality in the production of RBC and can also affect other cells

A

Sickle cell anemia

20
Q

RBC Lifespan

21
Q

It has macrophages(WBC) that splits the RBC into 2 (Iron and Heme) when RBC is already worn out

22
Q

It is the ______ which will be
recycled and will go to the red bone marrow to produce RBC

23
Q

Heme will turn into ________ then
transported to the liver

24
T OR F: Bilirubin travels from liver > gallbladder > small intestines and turned into either feces (Stercobilin) or urine (Urobilin)
True
25
Animals don’t have blood in them upon dissection because they don’t have Hemoglobin.
Shrimp, Cockroach, and Spiders
26
A nutrient-rich fluid for other organisms. Especially in invertebrate animals (w/o backbone). Consisting Plasma (50%), Hemocytes (35%), and waste material (15%)
Hemolymph
27
Oxygen binding of Hemolymph (term of Hemoglobin in animals)
Hemocyanin
28
Types of Circulation System
Open Circulation and Closed Circulation
29
The process where a nutrient- carrying fluid (hemolymph) moves throughout the channels and cavities of the body (Invertebrate animals)
Open Circulation
30
What is the flow of Open Circulation
Hemolymph is pumped by the Heart to the Hemocoel then it will go to the Central cavity to distribute to the other cavities. Nothing will return.
31
A cavity where nutrients carried by Hemolymph are absorbed by the tissues
Hemocoel
32
The process where a nutrient-carrying fluid moves throughout the body via vessels w/ the help of the heart (Vertebrate animals).
Closed Circulation
33
What is the flow of Closed Circulation?
Heart pumps Blood that travels through the Blood Vessels. Then Blood Vessels > Tissues > Blood Vessels > Heart
34
It pumps out blood for the body, and as big as a closed fist. It is protected by the Sternum which is a breastbone (located at the center-left)
Heart
35
2 Types of Closed Circulation
Pulmonary & Systemic
36
Movement of the blood from the heart to the lungs then back to the heart
Pulmonary
37
Blood from the heart to the different capillaries in the tissues of the body, then back to the heart
Systemic
38
Components of the Human Transport System
Organ which pumps blood to all parts of the body and is made up of cardiac muscle (Myocardium)
