🗑
6 solutes commonly found in blood   electrolytes, nutrients, gasses, regulatory substances, vitamins, waste products  
🗑
what is the definition of a formed element?   red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets  
🗑
what er the 3 classes of formed elements?   red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets  
🗑
5 classes of white blood cells   neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils  
🗑
relationship between erythrocyte and erythropoesis?   formation of RBC's is erythropoesis, and this process creates erythrocytes.  
🗑
relationship between reticulocytes and red blood cells?   a reticulocyte is an immature red blood cells  
🗑
neutrophil   type of wbc with a pale lilac stain and combination of basic dyes.  
🗑
monocyte   largest type of wbc characterized by a granular cytoplasm. function: phagocytosis  
🗑
eosinophil   combats the effects of histamine in allergic reactions, antibody functions  
🗑
B, T, and Nastural Killer cells   mediate immune responses, anitibody reactions, attack viruses, attack infections and cancer/tumor cells  
🗑
what is hemostasis?   a sequences of responses that stop bleeding when blood vessels are injured  
🗑
3 methods of hemostasis   vascular spasm, platlet plug formation, blood clotting  
🗑
hemorrage   the loss of a large amount of blood from vessels  
🗑
vascular spasm   the muscle around the injured vessel contracts cutting off blood loss  
🗑
platelet plug formation   when blood platelets come into contact with the injured blood vessel, they stick together and forma a plug to block the blood loss.  
🗑
clotting   fibrin in the blood forms a clot to block the loss of blood  
🗑
thrombus VS emblous   thrombus- a blood clot, can dissolve spontaniously. emblous- blood clot, air bubble, basicallly any debris in the blood  
🗑
pulmonary embolism   when an embolus gets lodged in the lungs. can result in DEATH  
🗑
reticylocyte   counting the volume of reticulocytes in a samle of blood that measures the rate of erythropoesis  
🗑
hematocrit   counting the percent of a blood samplethat is composed of RBC's. Can diagnose anemia.  
🗑
differincial WBC count   wounts different forms of Wbc's to assess for infectionsand making of wbcs.  
🗑
complets blood count   measure the volume of blood components to see if anything is out of range.  
🗑
-emia   blood condition  
🗑
erythro-   red

🗑
thrombo   blood clot  
🗑
what makes blood groups differnt from each other?   presence or absence of certian antigens  
🗑
how is type A diff from type b?   use a Rbcs to diplay when antigen A is present, they have type A. if antigen B, then type B.  
🗑
HOw is AB diff from A or B?   type AB has both A and B antigens  
🗑
what does anti-antigen A do? what does anti-antigen B do?   a- anti-A antibody reacts with anitegen A< B reacts with B  
🗑
who has an anti-A antibody? who does not?   antigens ofn the surface of RBC's , but antiblody B is in your blood plasma.  
🗑
who has an anti-B antibody? who does not?   B antigens on the surface of RBC's , but A- antibodies in the blood plasma.  
🗑
what happens in an incompatible blood transfusion?   the antibodies in the recipients plasma bind to antigens on the donated RBC's. when antigen antibody complexes form, they cause hemolysisand release hemoglogin into the plasma.  
🗑
what is the diff between Rh+ and Rh- blood?   People whose RBC's have the Rh antigen are Rh+, and those who lack are Rh-  
🗑
anemia   a condition which whr oxygen carrying capactity of blood os reduced. SYmptoms: fatigue, intolerance of cold, pale skin  
🗑
what is the cause of Iron-dificiency anemia?   inadequate absorption of iron, excessive iron loss, insuffiecent iron intake  
🗑
