How many phases of hematopoiesis are there in our lives? 3
The 2nd phase of hematopoiesis is called __. Hepatic phase
What 4 organs generate blood cells during the Hepatic phase? Spleen, thymus, liver, lymph nodes (STLLn, or "Still-in")
The 1st phase of hematopoiesis is called __. Mesoblastic phase (or Yolk Sac Phase)
When does the mesoblastic phase begin? 2-3 weeks after fertilization
The mesoblastic phase ends after __ weeks. 6
During the mesoblastic phase of Hematopoiesis, stem cells from the yolk sac differentiate into primitive __. Erythroblasts
What is an erythroblast? Primitive pluripotential cells that are precursors of all blood cell lines.
What is the first lymphatic organ to develop? (This happens during the hepatic phase) The thymus
Where do B cells develop in the hepatic phase? The spleen and kidney
What phase does production of megakaryocytes begin in? Hepatic phase
What is lymphopoiesis? The generation of lymphocytes, more formally called lymphoid hematopoiesis.
The spleen is almost the sole site of __ during the hepatic phase. lymphopoiesis
What is the 3rd phase of hematopoiesis? Medullary phase (or myeloid phase)
When does the medullary phase begin? Five months
Bone marrow activity increases tremendously during the __ phase. Medullary phase
After __ months, the bone marrow is the primary source of hematopoiesis. 6
CSF stands for __. colony stimulating factors
What do colony stimulating factors do? Cause the cells to proliferate and differentiate into specific kinds of blood cells
Under hypoxic conditions, the __ will produce and secrete erythropoietin to increase the production of red blood cells. Kidney
What is the most common cause of anemia? Iron deficiency
The kind of bone marrow that produces stem cells and all blood cell lines is called __ __ __. Red bone marrow
Megakaryocytes are __ in size and produce __. Large in size and produce platelets.
Macrophages are __ blood cells. White

Lymph nodes are located __ __ in the body. almost everywhere
B cells are created in the __ __. lymph nodes
What are the 3 main functions of lymph nodes? 1. Form new lymphocytes, 2. process specific antibodies (immunoglobulins), 3. filer debris and bacteria
What is the monophylectic theory? All blood cells are derived from a common stem cell.
What is the polyphyletic theory? There's a separate and distinct stem cell compartment for each blood cell type.
Two major types of stem cells are: noncommitted (also called undifferentiated) and multipotential

Another word for white blood cells? Leukocytes
What are the 2 main types of white blood cells myelocytes and lymphocytes
