A
both cells WBC uses blood as transport vehicles to parts of the body to carry out their funtions

Q
what rooe does blood play in blood clotting
A
when a blood is broken, certain proteins and platelets forms a blood clot to seal the damaged vesesel to prevet excess blood lost
16

the shape and composition
32
what are the 4 polypeptide subunits of hemoglobin
2 alpha cells and 2 beta cells
33
each peptide is bound to an iron containing compound called
heme group
34
each iron is heme groups binds to oxygen in parts of the body where oxygen concentration is high (lungs) to a form a molecule called
Oxyhemoglobin
35
where oxygens are of low concentration, hemoglobin releases oxygen to become
deoxyhemoglobin

not bound to O2
41
are veins really blue?
veins are not blue but simply appear to be blue due to optical illussion
42
What is hematopoeisis
is the process that produces the formed elements in blood
43
where does hematopoeisis occur
occurs in the red bone marrow which houses the cell from whichh all formed elements arise = hematopoeitic sin cells
44
length of erythropoiesis ( how long it takes to form RBCs)
5-7 days
45
What is erythropoeisis
refers to the formation of RBC's
46
by what process are reticulocytes ejects their remaining organelles
exocytocis
47
where does the remaining organells that reticulocytes ejects goes
enters into the blood stream
48
erythropoeisis regualtion
i) stimulus
ii) receptors
iii) control center
iv) homeostatis
49
what happens during the erythropoesis regulation
blood levels of oxygen decreases, kidneyy cells detect the falling oxygen levels, production of erythrocytes increases and then blood levels oxygen returns to normal
50
what happens during erythropoiesis
starts with a large nucleus, that shrinks and ejects with other organelles then cells enters blood stream after remanining organelles are ejected. cells then becomes mature
51
what happens when erythrocytes die
anemia
52
what are the 3 primary causes of anemia
i) decreased amount if hemoglobin
ii) decreased hematocrits
iii) abnomal hemoglobin
53
what happens to the plasma membranes of erythrocytes as they age
they become less flexible which makes it their passage through tiny capilaries diffucult
54

ratio of the volume of total number of RBCs and the volume of blood
56
what happens when red marrow stops producing erythrocytes
aplastic anemia
57

the natural process of stopping the flow or loss of blood
63
how are platelets formed
platelets are formed form very large bone marow cells called megakaryocutes
64
where are platelets produced
bone marrow
65
megakryocytes are coontrolled by
thrombopoietin
66
when a blood vessel is injured and blood is leaked into the extracellular fluid, what 2 responses occur
i) vasoconstriction
| ii) increased tissue pressure
67
what does vasocontriction and increased tissue pressure both do
they both decrease the blood vessel diameter
68
what is vascular spasm
constrcition of blood vessell to allow less blood to be lost during damaged blood vessell BUT can stop blood entierely
69
injured endothetial cells release a glycoprotein called
van willebrand factor
70
what forms the platelets plug
platelet aggregation
71
factor contents of ATP ADP, serotonin, calcium attract and activate to cause clumps called
aggregate
72
what does coagulations rely on
coagulation relies on clotting factors
73
fibrinogen is converrted into fibrin by
the coagualtion cascade
74
what is the most effective defence against bleeding
coagulation
75
what is the ultimate goal of coagulations
conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin
76
in what case does the reaction cascade pathway activate
when inactive protein factor XII comes into contact with exposed collagen fibers
77
what is the clot reaction
when edges of a wound vessels is brought close togehter much as sutures
78
what 4 clotting factors depends on vitamin A
II, VII, IX AND X
79
after a wound is healed and blood clot is no longer necessary, it dissolves through a process called
thrombolysis
80
what is fibrinolysis
th breakdown of the fibrin glue that was prodcuced in the coagulation cascade
81
are leukocytes nucleated or not
leukocytes are nucleuted
82
technically, is the immune system a system?
no bc it has no organs or tissues on its own. they instead consists of cells and proteins located in the blood
83
does the lymphatic system only works with the immune system
they do not work with only the immune system but also works to maintain homestatsis
84
immune and lympahtic system works togehter in what is broadly called
immunity

90
what are blood capillarries
form a 2 way system that moves blood both towards and away from the tissues
91
how are lymphatic capillaries and blood capillaries the same
lymphatic capillaries carries lymp away from tissues whereas blood cappillaries moves blood toward and away from lymphs
92
what is the function of the white pulp
filters pathogen
93
what is the fucntions of the red blood cells
contain macrophages that destroys old erytrocytes

They’re able to switch their constant region
128
Are secondary responses slow or fast
They’re faster, longer lasting and create higher concentration and attraction to the same antigen
129
What are cytokines
Small proteins produced by several types of immune cells that enhances the immune response. Usually act at shortage on neighboring cells or on the same cell that secretes them
130
What are cytokines
