What is a normal WBC count? 5-10 thousand per mm3
What cells are called Granulocytes eosinophils, basophils, neutrophils
Which cells are called Agranulocytes Lymphocytes, monocytes
Which cell is the smallest? Lymphocyte
Which cell is the largest Monocyte
What % of WBCs is Monocytes? 2-8%
What % of WBCs is Lymphocytes 20-35%
What % of WBCs is Eosinophils? 1-3%
What % of WBCs is basophils 0-1%
What % of WBCs is Neutrophils? 55-70%
What can cause a decrease in monocytes? infectious mono, or viral infection
What can cause a decrease in lymphocytes? HIV, T-cells in particular
What can cause an increase in eosinophils? parasites or protozoa infection
What is a normal platelet count? 200,000 -400,00 per mm3
What is the normal pH of the blood? 7.15 - 7.35
What is the normal salinity of the blood? 0.85%
What is the normal temperature of the blood? 38'
What is the normal volume of the blood? 5.25 liters
What does Hemopoiesis mean? manufacturing of the blood
What is a hemacytoblast? a pluripotent blood stem cell capable of developing into all blood cell types
What is a macrophage an activated, wandering monocyte that is very good at phagocytosis, have different names depending on what tissue it is found in
What is a histocyte? a macrophage found in the connective tissue
What is a Dust cell? A macrophage found in the respiratory tissue
What is Neuroglia? a macrophage found in the nervous tissue
What is a Kuppfer cell? A macrophage found in the digestive tract or liver
What is ths shape of a RBC? biconcave disc
Which organelles is a RBC lacking? nucleus,mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus
What is the normal lifespan of a RBC? 120 days
What do you call hemoglobin that is bound to oxygen? oxyhemoglobin
How many heme groups does hemoglobin have? 4
What do you call hemoglobin that is bound to CO2? carbaminohemoglobin
What % of CO2 is carried by hemoglobin? 27%, rest by plasma
How does oxygen diffuse into cell? Diffuses into interstitial space by a concentration gradient
What 3 components does Hemoglobin break down into? ferritin, globular core, bilirubin
Where does ferritin end up? gets recycled back to bone marrow
Where does globular core end up? Goes to liver gets chopped up and nitrogen waste enters blood and gets excreted as urea in the urine
What happens to the bilirubin moves to liver and gets broken down, gets excreted into bile then enters intestines and gets excreted into feces
what is erythropoiesis? manufacture of the RBCs
What is Renal Erythropoietic Factor? produced by kidney in response to decreased oxygen activates erythropoietin in the plasma
Which vitamin is required for RBC development? Vitamin B-12
How does a hemocytoblast know what cell to become? It's under homeostatic hormonal control
What is erythropoietin? Protein/hormone manufactured by liver, released into plasma, activated by Renal Erythropoietic Factor, targets Hemocytoblast in Bone marrow to develop into RBC, thus increasing number of RBCs
What is the normal values of a hematocrit for males and females? 37-47 % for females 42-52 % for males
What is polycythemia too many rbcs problem is usually with the kidney
Name 3 types of anemia 1. Pernicious amemia--low b12 2. iron deficiency anemia 3. Sickle Cell Anemia--defect in hgb structure
What is normal Hemoglobin content? 12-18 g /mm3
What % of WBCs is capable of phagocytosis? 90%
Which type of WBC phagocytizes the Ab-AG complex? eosinophils
Which type of WBC can produce antibodies? B-lymphocyte
define diapedesis ability to crawl through tiny places, makes WBCs migratory
what are HLA s Human Leukocyte Antigens antigens on the surface of WBCs that are specific to an individual
define antigen anything that can cause an immune reaction
Name 3 things that can cause leukocytosis infection inflammation infestation: parasites
Name 2 things that will cause leukopenia 1. leukemia 2. genetic factors causing immunodeficiancy
What is the life span of a platelet? 10-12 days
What are the 2 pathways of coagulation? intrinsic-bleeding internally extrinsic: bleeding outside body
What are the main factors clotting? 1. vascular spasm 2.platelets 3.coagulation proteins
What initiates clotting in the extrinsic pathway? exposure of the blood to atmospheric oxygen
Why are platelets sticky? cytoplasmic extensions
What converts prothrombin to thrombin? prothrombinase
What converts fibrinogen to fibrin? thrombin
What is thromboplastin? Tissue factor III, comes from damaged blood vessel, initiates extrinsic clotting pathway,activates prothrombinase in conjunction with Calcium
Where are the coag proteins manufactured? Liver
What is fibrinolysis? Clot dissolution, clot dissolved caused by plasmin
What is a thrombus? A clot in an unbroken blood vessel,potentially dangerous b/c can cause heart attack or stroke
What is an FDP test? Fibrin Degradation Products. If levels are high then indicates there is not much clotting power left in the body.
What is the normal time in a Bleeding Time test? 5-10 minutes
Which blood type used to be called a universal receiver? Type AB
What blood type used to be called a universal donor? Type O
Name 3 RBC antigens other than A,B, D. Kell, Duffy, Kidd
What disease can occur when an Rh positive baby is born to an RH negative mother? Give alternative name also. Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn aka Erythroblastosis Fetalis
What drug can prevent an Rh reaction in pregnancy? Rhogam
Where can RBC's be made in adults? only in Bone Marrow, unless bm is compromised as in radiation then liver can turn on again
Where can platelets be manufactured in both fetus and adult? only in Bone marrow
