Question | Answer |
---|---|
Blood is composed of 50% _________________. | water |
If your white blood cell count is high, you probably have an ___________________________. | infection |
The maximum number of oxygen molecules that can be carried by one hemoglobin molecule is __________. | four |
A blood cell is seen moving on it's own, so it must be a _________________________. | leukocyte |
A medicine with an antihistamine affects this type of cell. | basophil |
The three steps in the coagulation process produce these | prothrombinase, thrombin, fibrin |
Tissue or blood vessel damage produces this. | prothrombinase |
Prothrombinase converts prothrombin into this. | thrombin |
Thrombin converts fibrinogen into this. | fibrin |
Clean cuts do not promote _______________________ as well as jagged cuts do. | vasoconstriction |
vasoconstrictive stage | first stage in hemostasis |
platelet plug stage | second stage in hemostasis |
coagulation stage | third stage in hemostasis |
The release of this chemical stimulates several chemical processes that cause the platelets to stick together | thromboxane |
Some things are ____________ in the coagulation process, and some things are already in the bloodstream. | made |
Type O blood is called this because a person with any blood type can receive it without their body producing antibodies against it. | universal donor type |
If a person with O- blood donates blood, this blood type has no risk in receiving this blood. | O- |
If a person with O- blood donates blood, all other ___________________ have a low risk in receiving this blood. | blood types |
As a universal recipient, people with this type of blood can receive transfusions from any blood type with low risk. | AB |
To be a truly universal blood recipient, the blood must be this type, because Rh positive people do not produce the anti-Rh antibodies, and whether the blood donated is Rh positive or not will not matter. | AB+ |
Blood from the ___________________ comes from the body tissues and is deoxygenated. | right atrium |
Blood from the _________________ comes from the lungs and is oxygenated. | left atrium |
Deoxygenated blood is moving away from the heart. What ventricle was the blood just in? | right |
Deoxygenated blood is moving away from the heart, and left the heart through the ________________________. | pulmonary trunk |
Blood is more __________dense than water. So, if you fill a balloon with blood and throw it in water, it will __________. | dense, sink |
The _______ of blood ranges from 7.35 to 7.45. | pH |
The pH of blood has to be tightly controlled because many of the ____________________________ which control the body work properly only in a narrow range of pH. | chemical reactions |
The two main components of blood are ______________ (55%) and ______________________ 45%) | plasma, formed elements |
50% of blood is _________________ | water |
__________________ is mostly water. It also contains proteins, ions, nutrients, gases, regulatory chemicals, and waste | plasma |
____________________ make up most of the blood's formed elements. There are also leukocytes and blood platelets. | erythrocytes |
____________________ carries oxygen in the blood. | hemoglobin |
What metal must be in the hemoglobin in order for it to work properly? | iron |
_______________________ have a short life span because mature ones have no nucleus, and cannot make the proteins that they need and can't repair damge or replace degenerated proteins | red blood cells |
granulocytes | neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils |
agranulocytes | lymphocytes, monocytes |
Fight infections by phagocytosis | neutrophils, monocytes |
Release histamine and heparin | basophils |
____________________ are anti-inflammatory | eosinophils |
___________________ produce antibodies | lymphocytes |
Blood cells are formed from ____________________ found in the bone marrow. | stem cells |
A ___________________ is the plug formed in platelet plug formation | thrombus |
Coagulation factors play a critical role in this stage of blood coagulation | stage 1 |
If a blood coagulation factor is present, does this guarantee that coagulation is occurring? | no |
If an activated coagulation factor is present, does this guarantee that coagulation is occurring? | yes, because factors are only activated during the coagulation process |
Blood type ___________ is the universal donor, because it has no antigens at all. | O- |
Blood type ____________ is the universal recipient, because it has no antibodies and, regardless of the anti gens in the donor's blood, the recipient has no antibodies to attack the cells. | AB+ |
A father has type A blood and a mother has type B blood. What types are possible for these parents' children? | type A, type B, type AB or type O |
A father and mother are both Rh positive. They have a child who is Rh negative. This can happen because each parent must have a Rh-negative ___________. Each parent donates a _______________ allele. | allele, recessive |
A person's blood pressure is 120 over 80. 120 is _____________ and 80 is __________________ | systolic, diastolic |
Systolic refers to ventricular _______________________. | contraction |
Diastolic refers to ventricular ______________________. | relaxation |
The ____________________ ____________ is a clump of cardiac tissue that generates action potentials which cause atrial contraction. | sinoatrial node |
The __________________ __________ is a clump of cardiac tissue that generates action potentials which cause ventricular contraction. | atrioventricular node |
The sinoatrial node is also called this. | pacemaker |
Blood pressure is lower in these types of blood vessels. | veins |
Viscosity | The resistance to flow and alteration of shape due to cohesion |
Plasma | The fluid portion of blood, which is mostly water |
Formed elements of blood | The cells and cell parts of blood produced by the bone marrow |
Erythrocytes | Red blood cells which carry the oxygen in blood |
Leukocytes | White blood cells which perform various defensive functions in blood |
Platelets | Cell fragments in blood which help prevent blood loss |
Diapedesis | Passage of any formed element of blood |
Chemotaxis | Attraction of cells to chemical simuli |
Hemopoiesis | The process by which the formed elements of blood are made in the body |
Hemostasis | The process by which the body stops blood loss |
Coagulation factors | Proteins in blood plasma which help initiate the blood coagulation process |
Antigen | A protein or carbohydrate that, when introduced in the blood, triggers the production of an antibody |
Arteries | Blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart |
Capillaries | Tiny, thin-walled blood vessels that allow the exchange of gases and nutrients between the blood and cells |
Veins | Blood vessels that carry blood back to the heart |
Pulmonary circulation | Circulation of the blood over the air sacs of the lungs |
Systemic circulation | Circulation of the blood through the other tissues of the body |
Systolic phase | The phase of the cardiac cycle in which the ventricles contract |
Diastolic phase | The phase of the cardiac cycle in which the ventricles relax |

Arterioles | The smallest arteries that still have tunics |
Venules | Small veins that do not have three tunics but instead have only an endothelium, a basement membrane, and a few smooth muscle cells |
