Question
Answer
percent of blood volume that is RBCs   47% +/- 5% males 42% +/- 5% females  
🗑
plasma makes up what percent of blood?   55%  
🗑
functions of blood   1. distribution 2. regulation 3. protection  
🗑
volume that drops to support circulation   shock  
🗑
protection again...   blood loss (clotting) and infection (antibodies, complement proteins, WBCs defend)  
🗑
60% albumin 36% globulins 4% fibrinogen   proteins produced by the liver carried in the plasma  
🗑
water follows particles, holds water to keep in system   osmosis  
🗑
nitrogenous by products of metabolism, nutrients, electrolytes, resp. gases, hormones   carried in the blood plasma  
🗑
biconcave discs, anucleate, essentially no organelles, filled with hemoglobin for gas tx   erythrocytes  
🗑
blood viscosity increased, blood flows slow   # of RBCs high  
🗑
blood thins, and flows rapidly   # of RBCs low  
🗑
binds reversibly to oxygen   hemoglobin  
🗑
2 alpha and 2 beta chains   protein globin  
🗑
blood cell formation, from the red bone marrow of the axial skeleton, girdles and proximal epiphyses of humerus and femur   hematopoiesis  
🗑
gives rise to all formed elements   hemocytoblasts (hematopoietic stem cells)  
🗑
red blood cell production   erythropoiesis  
🗑
phases of RBC production   1. ribosome synthesis (protein factory) 2.hemoglobin accumulation 3. ejection of the nucleus and formation of reticulocytes then become mature erythrocytes  
🗑
balance between RBC production and destruction depends on...   hormonal controls and adequate supplies of iron, amino acids, and B vitamins  
🗑
direct stimulus for erythropoiesis and released by the kidneys in response to hypoxia   erythropoietin (EPO)  
🗑
causes of hypoxia   1.hemorrhage or increased RBC destruction 2. insufficient hemoglobin 3. reduced availability of 02  
🗑
enhances EPO production resulting in higher RBC counts in males   testosterone  
🗑
dietary requirements for erytheopoiesis   1. nutrients-AA, lipids, and carbs 2. iron 3. vitamin B12 and folic acid  
🗑
macrophages engulf dying RBCs and send them...   spleen  
🗑
destruction of erythrocytes   heme(iron) and globin (protein AA) are separated, iron is salvaged, heme is degraded to bilirubin, liver secretes bilirubin into the intestines, degraded pigment leaves the body in poop, globin is metabolized in AA  
🗑
blood has abnormally low O2 carry capacity   anemia  
🗑
acute or chronic loss of blood   hemorrhagic  
🗑
RBCs rupture prematurely (hemoglobin abn, tx mismatched blood, severe infections)   hemolytic anemia  
🗑
destruction or inhibition of red bone marrow (drugs, chemo, radiation, or viruses)   aplastic anemia  
🗑
inadequate intake of iron-containing foods and impaired iron absorption   iron-deficiency anemia  
🗑
deficiency of vitamin B12   pernicious anemia  
🗑
defective gene codes for abnormal hemoglobin   sickle-cell anemia  
🗑
excess of RBCs that increase blood viscosity   polycythemia  
🗑
results of polycythemia   1.polycythemia vera-bone marrow cancer 2. when less O2 is available (high altitude) or when EPO production increases 3. blood doping  
🗑
site of infection or injury-tissues are involved give off chemical signals alert the cells where to go   chemotaxis  
🗑
follow chemical signals by crawling the cell space   diapedesis  
🗑
NEVER LET MONKEYS EAT BANANAS   Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosinophils, Basophils (in order of %)  
🗑
Neutrophils, Eosinophils, Basophils are all...   granulocytes (-phil family)  
🗑
most numerous WBCs and are polymorphonuclear leukocytes. lilac color cytoplasm, granules contain hydrolytic enzymes and defensins, phagocytize bacteria   Neutrophils D:14 days LS:6hrs-days  
🗑
red-staining bilobe nucleus,digest parasitic worms, modulators of the immune response(allergy and asthma)   eosinophils D:14 days LS:5days  
🗑
rarest WBC, large purplish-black geanules that contain histamine and others for inflammation   Basophils D:1-7 days LS:hrs-days  
🗑
it attracts other WBCs to an inflammation site area, area thats been damaged, release of histamine   chemo-attractant  
🗑
large, dark purple, circular nuclei, thin rim of blue cytoplasm, mostly in lymphoid tissue, crucial to immunity   lymphocytes D:days-weeks LS:hrs-years  
🗑
act against virus-infected cells and tumor cells   T cells  
🗑
give rise to plasma cells, which produce antibodies (factory)   B cells  
🗑
largest leukocyte, abundant pale-blue cytoplasm, dark purple-staining, U or kidney shaped nuclei   Monocytes D:2-3 days LS:months  
🗑
originates as a monocyte   macrophages  
🗑
small fragments of megakaryocytes, formation is regulated by thrombopoietin   platelets  
🗑
platelets contain...   chemical signals, enzymes, growth factors.  
🗑
2 cell lines of hemocytoblasts   1. myeloid 2. lymphoid  
🗑
lymphoid hemocytoblasts produce...   lymphocytes  
🗑
myeloid hemocytoblasts produce...   all other elements: eosinophils, basophils, neutrophils, monocytes.  
🗑
basic cell design, isn't committed to any cell yet.   stem cells  
🗑
fast series of reactions to stop bleeding   1. vascular spasm 2. platelet plug formation 3. coagulation (positive feedback system)  
🗑
set of reactions to stop bleeding   hemostasis  
🗑
forming a plug that temporarily seals the break in vessel   aggregating  
🗑
enhance vascular spasm and more platelet aggregation   serotonin and thromboxane  
🗑
3 phases of coagulation   1. prothrombin activator is formed (intrinsic and extrinsic pathways) 2. prothrombin converted into thrombin (enzyme) 3. thrombin catalyzes the joining of fibrinogen to form fibrin mesh  
🗑
steps of intrinsic pathway of coagulation (phase 1)   platelets cling, PF is release by aggregated platelets, X (protein factor), to prothrombin activator  
🗑
steps of extrinsic pathway of coagulation (phase 1)   tissue factor, X (protein factor), to prothrombin activator  
🗑
phase 2 of coagulation   prothrombin >thrombin  
🗑
phase 3 of coagulation   fibrinogen (soluble)> fibrin (insoluble polymer) > cross-linked fibrin mesh  
🗑
actin and myosin in platelets contract within 30-60 minutes for...   clot retraction  
🗑
steps of clot retraction (think stitches)   platelets pull on the fibrin strands, squeezing serum from the clot, drawing the edges of cut together  
🗑
removes unneeded clots when healing has occurred   fibrinolyis  
🗑
fibrin-digesting enzyme (clot buster)   plasmin  
🗑
effectively acts as an anticoagulant, preventing the clot from enlarging and thrombin from acting elsewhere   fibrin  
🗑
platelet adhesion is prevented by   1. smooth endothelial lining of blood vessels 2. antithrombic substances nitric oxide and prostacyclin secreted by endothelial cells  
🗑
universal donor   O  
🗑
universal recipient   AB  
🗑
mismatches..   anti-Rh antibodies form if an Rh- individual receives Rh+ blood, second exposure to Rh+ blood will result in typical transfusion reaction  
🗑
transfusion reaction   antibodies attack and rupture the donors RBCs by clumping in small vessels hinders blood flow to tissues  
🗑
ways to replace volume   1. normal saline or electrolyte solution 2. plasma explanders (albumin, dextran)  
🗑
volume replacement restores adequate circulation but cannot replace O2-carrying capacity   blood volume  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
