| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What determines the color of blood? | The amount of oxygen |
| Describe plasma and list it's constituents (parts). | liquid portion 55%, water 92%, Proteins 7%, albumin - volume expandable, globulin - protein (gamma = immunity), coagulation proteins: prothrombin + fibrinogen |
| List all three types of blood cells and all of their names | white blood cells (WBC) leukocytes. red blood cells (RBC) erythrocytes. platelets (thrombocytes) |
| What exactly is responsible for carrying O2 (oxygen)? | hemoglobin - oxygen bind with pigment |
| Which cells perform phagocytosis? | leukocytes (WBC). |
| List two functions of platelets. | 1) release thromboplastin. 2) platelet plug. |
| What blood cells are formed in the red bone marrow? | All - WBC, RBC, Platelets. |
| Which is described as the "protein pigment" which is carried in the RBC? | hemoglobin |
| What is the normal range of WBC? | 4,000 - 9,000 or 5,000 - 10,000 |
| What is the normal range of RBC? | 4.5-6 million per cubic d/L |
| What is the normal ranges of platelets? | 150,000 - 500,000 |
| List all plasma proteins and describe the function of each one. | Albumin "volume expander" prevents water from escaping. Globulins - protein (gamma = immunity) Fibrinogen + prothrombin - coagulation proteins |
| What actually initiates clotting first? | tissue injury |
| which term means to engulf bacteria? | phagocytosis |
| What is the normal hemoglobin range? | 12-16 g/dL |
| Which group is at the lower end of the normal hemoglobin range? | Females |
| What normal hemoglobin is borderline? | 11 |
| What is a hemoglobin number of 10 represent? | anemic |
| Which term means moving to an area of infection? | diapedisis |
| Describe normal clotting sequence. | as long as we have calcium (prothrombin activator) thromboplastin converts prothrombin into thrombin which converts fibrinogen into fibrin (needs calcium to do this) |
| Which organ converts bilirubin into bile? | Liver |
| What element is necessary for Hgb formation? | Iron |
| Which organ forms bilirubin from waste products of old RBC destruction? | Spleen |
| Which element plays a major role in the clotting mechanism? | Calcium |
| Review life cycle (development of) RBC. | minor decrease in oxygen and the kidney secretes erythropoiten which goes to red bone marrow causing it to form RBC, 1st erythroblast - has nucleus, rbc live 3-4 months - as they try to fit through capillaries macrophages absorb old waste |
| What do we need bile for? | fat digestion. |
| Define diapedesis. | the process of a WBC moving from a capillary wall to infected area which makes it white |
