Term
Definition
General functions of blood.   Transportation- of gasses, nutrients, waste, and hormones regulation- pH, Body temp, Water content of cells Protection- WBC fight off disease  
🗑
6 Characteristics of Blood   color- volume- 4-5(female) 5-6(male) viscosity plasma concentration- 0.09% Temperature- 100.4 pH- 7.35-7.45  
🗑
Arteries   Transports blood away from the heart  
🗑
Veins   transport blood towards the heart  
🗑
Capillaries   allow exchange between blood and body tissues  
🗑
Centrifuged blood   plasma(55% of whole blood) Buffy coat(<1%of whole blood) Erythrocytes(44% of whole blood)  
🗑
Plasma (55% of whole blood)   Water Proteins- Albumins, Globulin, fibrinogen, and regulatory proteins other solutes- electrolytes, nutrients, respiratory gases, and waste products  
🗑
Buffy coat(<1% of blood)   Platelets-150-400 thousand per cubic mm Leukocytes - 4.5-11 thousand per cubic mm Neutrophils ,lymphocytes, Eosinophils, Basophils, Monocyte  
🗑
Erythocytes (44% of whole blood)   4.2-6.2 Million per cubic mm  
🗑
Hematocrit   Percentage of volume of all formed elements Clinical Definition- Percentage of only erythrocytes  
🗑
Blood Smear   Thin layer of blood placed on microscope slide and stained  
🗑
Plasma Proteins   Albumins, Globulins, Fibrinogen, and Regulatory proteins  
🗑
Albumins   Exerts osmotic force to retain fluid within the blood, contributes to blood's viscosity and is responsible for some fatty acid and hormone transport,  
🗑
Globulins   Alpha-Globulins transport lipids and some metal ions Beta-Globulins transports iron and lipids in blood Gamma-Globulins are antibodies that immobilize pathogens  
🗑
Fibrinogen   Participates in blood coagulation (Clotting)  
🗑
Colloid   Blood is a colloid; Plasma contains dispersed proteins  
🗑
Colloid osmotic pressure   Plasma proteins exert colloid osmotic pressure -Prevents loss of fluid from blood as it moves through capillaries  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
