wbc circulate for only a short portion of their life span using the blood stream. White blood cells spend most of their time migrating through ___ through out the body loose and dense CT
when circulating wbc's in the bloodstream become activated, they contact and adhere to vessel walls and squeeze between adjacent endothelial cells to enter the surrounding tissue. This process is called emigration or diapedesis
all white blood cells are attracted to specific chemical stimuli. This "characteristic", called _____ guides wbc's to _____, damaged tissues, and other active WBCs positive chemotaxis, invading pathogens
WBCs capable of phagocytosis are neutrophils, eosinophils, and monocytes

macrophages are ____ that have moved out of the blood stream and have become actively ________ monocytes, phagocytic
stem cells derived from hemocytoblasts are lymphoid stem cells, myeloid stem cells
____ are stem cells in red bone marrow that divide to give rise to all types of formed elements other than lymphocytes myeloid stem cells
____ or multi potent stem cells, found in red bone marrow of adults. Their divisions give rise to 2 types of stem cells responsible for producing all formed elements hemocytoblasts
during their development and growth, ______ manufacture structural proteins, enzymes, and membranes before shedding cytoplasm in small membrane-enclosed packets. These packed are the platelets that enter the blood stream megakaryocytes
erythropoietin "EPO" is released 1. during anemia 2. when blood flow to kidneys decline 3. when the oxygen content of the air in the lungs decline 4. when the respiratory surfaces of the lungs are damaged
