AP ch 27-31

blood heart and circulation

QuestionAnswer
structures of the circulatory system heart, arteries, veins and blood
The purpose of blood carries oxygen, regulates ph and body temperature, prevents infection
what factors determine someone blood volume gender, age, weight, body composition, and methods of measurement used
how do you determine Hct Hct of 45% means 45ml abcs and 55ml of plasma per 100 ml
normal hct Female: 45%-54% male- 38%-47%
Eruthrocytes facts RBCs, have no uncles, stain pink, transport O2 and CO2, live 105-120 days
normal adult RBCs count in million/cubic mm 5,000,000
Hemoglobin carries oxygen and Carbon dioxide, contains iron, 1 molecules of hemoglobin binds to 4 O2 molecules, breaks down:m iron, pigment bilirubin, amino
neutrophil 12-15 um, spherical shape, multilobed necleus connected, pink and purple stains, Cellular defense, phagocytosis of small pathogenic microorganisms
Basophil 11-14 UM, two lobed nucleus, large purple stain, secretes heparin
eosinophil 10-12 mumm tow lobed nucleus , orange-red, cellular defense, some phagocytosis, chemical attack of large pathogenic microorganisms, allergic reactions
lymphocyte 6-9 um road nucleus, have scant cytoplasm, humoral defense , secretes antibodies ,involved in immune system response and regulation
monocyte 12-17 nucleus kidneys bean shaped, cytoplasm steal blue, eats bacteria cellular debris and cancerous cells
platelets 2-5 um releases clot
where is RBCs formed red bone marrow
erythropoietin a hormone secreted by the kidneys that increases the rate of production of RBCS is response to falling levels of oxygen in the tissues
hemoglobin break down when RBCs die hemoglobin is broken up; iron is salvaged, transported to the bone marrow by proteins called transferring and used again in the product of new RBCs
Rh factor is an inherited protein found don the surface of the red blood cells. if you are Rh positive you have positive blood type
Rh In pregnancy If a mother is rh-negative and her baby is rh-positive her immune system with treat the fetal cells as foreign substances. This could cause the antibodies to crux back through the placenta into the developing baby, destroying the baby's circulating RBCs
Blood clotting stages 1. constriction of the blood vessels 2. formation of a temporary "platelet plug" 3. activation of the coagulation cascade 4. formation of the final clot
what role does calcium play in blood clotting calcium activates platelets
Layers of the heart epicardium(outer layer that contains blood vessels) , myocardium ( middle layer conracts the heart), and endocardium( inner layer composed of valves)
pericardial fluid lubricates the two membranes with every heartbeat of the heart as their surfaces glide over each other
Tricuspid Valve beween the right atrium and right ventricle
Pulmonary valve between the right ventricle and pulmonary artery
mitral Valve between the left atrium and the left ventricle
Aortic Valve between the left ventricle and aorta
What is the order of impulse conduction in the heart The SA node starts the sequence causing the atrial muscle to contract. Signals travel to the AV node through bundles of his down the bundles of branch and through the purkinjie fibers, causing the ventricles to contract
Major artery and veins The aorta and pulmonary trunk (arteries) send blood out of your heart. The pulmonary veins, superior vena cava and inferiors been Ava (veins) carry blood into your heart
Trachycardia a heart rat over 100 beats a minute
Bradycardia a heart rat below 60 beats a minute
The order of blood flow through the vessels Arteries to capillaries to veins
cardiace output the quantity of blood pumped bu the heart in a given period of time, typically measured in liters per minute
Fick formula Calculates cardiac out put: CO= VO2/Ca-CV
Stralings law the force or tension developed in a muscle fiber depend on the extent to which the fiber is stretched
Types of shock Cariogenic shock(due to heat problems) hypovolemic shock (caused by too little blood volume) anaphylactic shock (causes by allergic reaction) septic shock(dues to infection) neurogenic shock (caused by damaged to the nervous system)
