Chapter 14 lec Blood

A& P Lecture

QuestionAnswer
Major functions of Blood include transports nutrients, oxygen, wastes and hormones: helps maintain the stability of the interstitial fulid and distributes heat
Describe the general characteristics of blood Blood is a type of connective tissue whose cells are suspended in a liquid extracellular matrix. Blood is vital in transporting substance between body cells and the external environment promoting homeostasis.
The major functions of blood include _______ Nutrient, hormone, oxygern, and waste transport helping maintain the stability of interstitial fluid Heat distribution ANSWER: ALL OF THE OBOVE
fORMED ELEMENTS IN BLOOD ARE________,_______, AND ________. Red Cells, White Cels and and platlets,
Distinguish among the formed elements of blood and the liquid portion of blood includes red blood cells and white blood cells. Also contains cellular fragments called blood platelets. the clear, straw-colored plasma is a complex mixture of water, amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, vitamins, hormones, elecrolytes and celul
Define hematocrit percentage of cells and liquid in the blood sample can be calculated. is usually bout 45%
Explain how hemotocrit is determined white blood cell & platelets 1%, remaining blood sample 55% is the clear, straw colored plasma
The liquid portion of the blood is called ________. Plasma
Indicate where blood cells differentiate. Blood cells originate in red bone marrow from hematopoietic stem cells can divide to give rise to specialized cells & more stem cells.
Explain the blood cells differentiate process. Hematopoietic stem cells divide new cells myeloid and lymphoid stem cells secrete growth factors that turn on some genes and turn off others.
Describe a red blood cell tiny about 7.5 unin diameter, biconcave discs, thin near the center & thick around their rims.
Describe the orgin of red blood cells Originate in red bone marrow from hematopoietic stem cells.
Term: red blood cell count. number of red blood cells in a microliter of blood is called red blood count
Explain the significance of red bood cell counts. an increasing # of circulating red blood cells increases the blood's oxygen carying capacity so changes in this number may affect health.
Blood cell ytpical range for adult male, female and child. adult males - 4,600,000 to 6.200,000. Female-4,200,000-5,400,000 children-4,500,000-5,100,000
Life cycle of red bood cells 120 days it travels through the body about 75,000 times. Are removed from circulation each day, yet # remains the same these #'s suggest a homeostatic control of the rae of red blood cell production
What ____________ mechanism using hormone erythropoietin controls the rate of red blood cell formation. In response to prolonged oxygen deficiency. Negative Feedback Mechanism
From where is Erthropoietin released? From th kidneys and to a lesser extent from the liver.
Summerize the control of red cell formation. Negative Feedback mechanism using hormone Erthropietin-the amount of oxygen delivered to th tissues intialy decreases, oxygen drops trigger release erythropoietin(EPO) travels via the blood to the red bone marrow and stimulstes increased EPO
Contrast oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin Oxyhemoglobin, Compund formed when oxygen binds to hemoglobin ( is bright red when h2o is released. Deoxyhemoblobin, Hemoglobin that does not bind oxygen.
Explain how vitamin B`12 and folic acid deficiencies affect red blood cell production. B 12 Required for DNA synthesis necessary for growth & dividion of cells.(Intrinsic factor to absorb)Iron is required for hemoglobin synthesis (absorbed from small intestin)
Distinguis between biliverdin and bilirubin Biliverdin, heme further decomposes into iron and a greenish pigment. Bilirubin excreted in bile as bile pigments
Distiguish between granulacytes & agranulocytes Granulocytes- Leukocyte with granules in its cytoplasm. Agranulacytes - those without cytoplasmic granules
types of granulocytes Neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils
types of agranulocytes monocytes, lymphocytes
5 types of white blood cells (1) Neutrophils- fine cytoplasmic granules purple w/acid base stain, older is lobed consists of 2 to 5 sections(segs) Young (called bands) nuclei are c-shaped, 1st at infection, phagocytize bacteria, fungi. 54%-62% adult sample
5 types of white blood cells (2) Eosinophils-contain coars uniformly sized cytoplamic granules, stain deep red/acid stain nucleus has 2 lobes, allergic reactions defend against parasitic worm infestation. 1%-3% circulating leukocytes
5 types of white blood cells (3) Basophils/similar to eosinophils coarse uniformly sized have fewer irregularly shaped cytoplasmic granules/stain deep blue in basic stain/migrate to damaged tissues release histamine promotes inflammation/heparin inhibis blood clotting
5 types of white blood cells (4) Moncytes/largest blood cell/2to3 times in diameterthan red blood cells/nuclei r spherical/kidney-shaped/oval or lobed/leave bloodstream become macrophages bacteria/dead cells/debris in tissues. 3%-9% of leukocytes
5 types of white blood cells lymphocytes/slightly Lg.than erythrocytes/lg. spherical nucleus surrounded by a thin rim of cytoplasm/major lymphocytes r T cells & B cells(immunity)/attack microorganisms/tumor cells/transplanted cells/B cells produce antibodies/52-33%/circul.leukocytes
_______ are fragments of megakoryoctyes that function in ________ Platelet or thrombocytes/red bone marrow
The most abundant componet of plasma is Water
Three tyes of plasma protein Albumins/globulins/fibrinogen
Function of albumins protein smalles of plasma protein 60% by weight/synthesized in the liver/important determinant of osmotic pressure of the plasma
Function of Globulins 36% of the plasma protein. Subdividions Alpha/Beta/Gamma globulins/liver synthesizes alph & beta gobulins/transport lipids, fat soluble vitamins/lymphatic tissue/gamma globulins type of antibody
Function of Fibrinogen 4% of plasma protein/primary role blood coagulation/synthesized in the liver/largest of plasma protein
Name the gases and nutrients of plasma Gases-oxygen & carbon dioxide. Nutrients-amino acids/simple sugars/nuclietides/lipids/cholestrol/phospholipids(not water soluable) carried in plasma by joining w/protein
Define nonprotein nitrogenous substances, and name those commonly present in plasma Molecules that contain nitrogen atoms but are not proteins. In plasma-amino acids, urea,uric acid, creatine and creatinine.
The most abundant plasma electrolytes are _______ and ________ Sodium and chloride
Name several plasma electrolytes Sodium-calcium-chloride-phosphate-potassium-magnesium-bicarbonate-sulfate ions
_______ is the term for stoppage of bleeding Hemostasis
Explain how blood vessel spasm is stimulated following an injury Cutin or breaking a smaller blood vessel stimulates the smooth muscles in its wall to contract, called vasospasm.
Platelets adhering to form a plug may control blood loss from a _______ break but a larger break may require a ______ to halt bleeding Injured tissue/turnicate
Name a vitamin required for blood cloting Vitamin K
Distinguish between fibrinogen and fibrin major event in blood clot formation is conversion of the soluble plasma protein fibrinogen (factor 1) into insoluble threads of proten fibrin
Describe the major steps leading to the formation of a blood clot Coagulation may occure extrinsically or inrinsically relase of biochemicals from broken blood vessesl or damagedtissures trigger the extrinsic. the absence of tissue damage stimulates the intrinsic clotting mechanism.
Indicate the trigger and outline the steps for extrinsic clotting triggered when blood contacts damaged blood vessel walls or tissue outside blood vessels.Steps factor III thromboplastin assoc w/disrupted cell membranes/activates factor x/combines w/factor V/Factor II prothrombin(alpha globulin) liver produces/prothromb
Intrinsec clotting mechanism Blood contacts foreign surface/hageman factor XII/factor XI/Factor VIII/Factor X/Factor V/
Serum The blood clot shrinks, pulling the edges of the broken vessel closer together & squeezing a fluid called serum
Distinguish between a thrombus and an embolus Thrombus- a blood clot abnormally forming in a vessel. Embolus-a clot that dislodges or a gragment of a clot that breaks loose and is carried away by the blood flow is call an
