MA108 Blood system
LTI Chapter 13
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| White blood cell with reddish granules; numbers increase i allergic reactions: | eosinophil |
| protein threads that form the basis of a clot | fibrin |
| method of separating out plasma proteins by electrical charge: | leukapheresis |
| foreign material that invades the body | antigens |
| pigment produced from hemoglobin when red blood cells are destroyed | bilirubin |
| an undifferentiated blood cell is calleda(an) | hematopoietic stem cell |
| anticoagulant found in the blood | heparin |
| a disorder of red blood cell morphology is | poikiloctosis |
| deficiency in numbers of white blood cells | erthroblast |
| derived from bone marrow | myeloid |
| breakdown of recipient's red blood cells when incompatible bloods are mixed | hemolysis |
| sideropenia occurs causeing deficient production of hemoglobin | iron-deficiency anemia |
| reduction in red cells due to excessive cell destruction | hemolytic anemia |
| failure of blood cell production due to absence of fromation of cells in the bone marrow | aplastic anemia |
| inherited defect in ability to produce hemoglobin | thalassemia |
| lack of mature red cells due to inability to absorb vitamin B12 into the body | pernicious anemia |
| excessive deposits of iron throughout the body | hemochromatosis |
| symptoms of pallor, shortness of breath, infection, bleeding gums, predominance of immature and abnormally functioning leukocytes, and low numbers of mature neutrophils in a young child may indicate a likely diagnosis of | acute lymphocytic leukemia |
| excessive bleeding caused by congenital lack of factor VIII or IX | hemophilia |
| venous blood is clotted in a test tube | coagulation time |
| sample of blood is spun in a test tube so that red cells fall to the bottom and precentage of RBS's is taken | hematocrit |
| blood smear is examined to determine the shape or form of cells | red blood cell morphology |
| leukocytes are stained and counted under a microscope to see numbers of mature and immature forms | white blood cell differential |
| venous blood is collected; anti-coagulant added and the distance cells fall in a period of time is determined | erythrocyte sedimentation rate |
| blood protein that maintains the proper proportion and concentration of water in blood | albumin |
| swelling; fluid leaks out into tissue spaces | edema |
| IgM,IgG, IgA, IgD,IgE | immunoglobulins |
| symptoms of disease return | relapse |
| relieving symptons, but not curing disease | palliative |
| deiciency of clotting cells | thrombocytopenia |
| process of coltting | coagulation |
| large cell that engulfs foreign material and worn out red cells | macrophage |
| white blood cell that destroys foreign material by phagocytosis | neutrophil |
| blood protein | albumin |
| lack of mature red cells owing to inability to absorb vitamin B12 | pernicious anemia |
| relieving symptoms but not curing | palliative |
| produced in bone marrow | myelogenous |
| a protein with antibody activity | immunoglobulin |
| increase in red blood cells | polycythemia vera |
| plasma minas clotting protein and cells | serum |
| deficiency of white blood cells | leukocytopenia |
| formation of bone marrow cells | myelopoiesis |
| substance that prevents clotting | anticoagulant |
| pretaining to destruction of clots | thrombolytic |
