🗑
What are the agranulocytes   lymphocytes & monocytes  
🗑
What is the precursor cell of platelets?   megakarycyte  
🗑
Which cell is involved in destroying parasitic worms?   eosinophil  
🗑
Which cell releases histamine; promotes inflamation?   basophil  
🗑
Which cell produces antibodies?   lymphocyte  
🗑
Which cell transports oxygen?   red blood cells  
🗑
What is primarily water, noncellular, and the fluid matrix of blood   plasma  
🗑
Which cell exits a blood vessel to develop into a macrophage?   monocytes  
🗑
NLMEB   never let moneys eat bananas  
🗑
What are the five types of white blood cells?   neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils  
🗑
List four classes of nutrients normally found in plasma   amino acids, glucose, fatty acids, vitamins  
🗑
Name two gases found in plasma   carbon dioxide & oxygen  
🗑
Name three ions found in plasma   sodium, potassium, and calcium  
🗑
Describe the consistency and color of plasma   (slippery) gelatinous fluid unlike water; has a straw like color to it (yellow)  
🗑
What is the average life span of a red blood cell?   duration of development is about 15 days. life span 100 to 200 days.  
🗑
How does the red blood cell's anuceate condition affect its life span?   they are unable to reproduce or repair damage caused to it during circulation  
🗑
describe eosinophils   bilobe nucleus, contains large cytoplasmic granules (elaborate lysosomes), stains red - orange.  
🗑
describe neutrophils   nucleus consists of 3 to 6 lobes and pale lilac cytoplasm contains fine cytoplasmic granules  
🗑
describe lymphocytes   nucleus spherical or slightly indented, accounts for most of the cells mass, cytoplasm appears as a thin blue rim around the nucleus  
🗑
describe basophils   large U or S shaped nucleus with 2 or more indentations. Cytoplasm has course, sparse granules  
🗑
describe monocytes   kidney shaped nucleus, has abundant cytoplasm (stains grey-blue)  
🗑
Blood pathology where there is abnormal increas in the number of WBCs   leukocytes  
🗑
Blood pathology where there is an abnormal increase in the number of RBCs   polycythemia  
🗑
Blood p;athology where there is a condition of too few RBCs or of RBCs with hemoglobin deficiencies   anemia  
🗑
Blood pathology where there is a decrease in the number of WBCs   leukopenia  
🗑
Define hematocrit   packed cell volume (PVC)% occupied by erythrocytes  
🗑
If you had a high hematocrit, would you expect your hemoglobin determination to be high or low?   High. The more erythrocytes you have means you will have more hemoglobin needed for oxygen bonding.  
🗑
If you blood clumped with both anti-A and anti-B sera, your ABO blood type would be ?   AB blood type  
🗑
To what ABO blood groups could to give blood?   AB blood type  
🗑
From which AO donor types could you receive blood?   all donor types  
🗑
Which ABO blood type is most common?   O blood type  
🗑
Which ABO blood type is least common?   AB type  
🗑
What blood type is considered the universal donor?   O blood type. Because they can give blood to the other ABO blood types without causing an ABO transfusion reaction  
🗑
Explain why an Rh-negative person does not have a transfusion reaction on the first exposure to RH-positive blood but does have a reaction on the second exposure   RH antigens of donor sensitizes the recipient on the first time, the 2nd time it doesn't sensitize and a reaction will occur  
🗑
What happens when an ABO blood type is mismatched for the first time?   antibodies bind together causing blood to clump up, and the blood will not work properly.  
🗑
