Question
Answer
Erythrocytes   RBCs, average 4.5-5 million cells/mm3, anucleate when mature  
🗑
Leukocytes   granulocytes and agranular leukocytes. Nucleates cells, 5-10,000 cells/mm3, can move in and out of blood vessels in a process called emigration or diapedesis  
🗑
Granulocytes   Neutrophil, Eosinophil, Basophil. High abundance of granules inside cell  
🗑
Agranular Leukocytes   Lymphocyte, Monocyte. no observable cytoplasmic granules  
🗑
Neutrophil   Granulocyte. most abundant WBC (50-80%). stain purple, 3-7 lobed nucleus, active phagocyte, #s increase during acute infections  
🗑
Eosinophil   Granulocyte. (2-4%), bilobed nucleus, stains red-orange, #s increase during allergies and parasite infections. Phagocyte  
🗑
Basophil   Granulocyte. least abundant leukocyte (<1%), large U or S-shaped nucleus, granules contain chemicals, including histamine. For inflammatory response  
🗑
Lymphocyte   Agranular leukocyte. (20-40%), smallest nucleus, 3 types: B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, NK cells. involved in immunologic response.  
🗑
Monocyte   Agranular leukocyte. (2-8%). largest leukocyte, kidney-shaped nucleus, active phagocyte.  
🗑
Platelets   cell fragments from megakaryocytes. irregularly shaped, 140-450,000 cells/mm3, instrumental in blood clotting  
🗑
Leukocytosis   an increase in the total number of white blood cells, may indicate infection, poisoning, or hemorrhage.  
🗑
Leukopenia   a decrease in WBC counts below 4,000/mm3, could be caused by tuberculosis, measles, or infectious hepatitis  
🗑
Infectious Mononucleosis   benign, lymphocyte proliferation disease caused by infection with the Epstein-Barr virus (a herpes). Swollen lymph nodes, sore throat, fever, splenomegaly, appearance of atypical T lymphocytes in blood.  
🗑
Leukemia   malignant disease from uncontrolled increase in abnormal WBC in bone marrow: myeloid leukemia and lymphoid leukemia  
🗑
Myeloid Leukemia   increase in granulocytes or thrombocytes  
🗑
Lymphoid Leukemia   various stages of lymphocyte development  
🗑
What is the term for the central blood-containing space of a blood vessel?   lumen  
🗑
Name the innermost tunic (layer) of a blood vessel, what is this tunic made of?   Tunica intima, squamous endothelium  
🗑
Name the middle tunic of a blood vessel, what is this tunic made of?   Tunica media, smooth muscle and elastin  
🗑
Name the outer tunic of a blood vessel, what is this tunic made of?   Tunica externa, collagen  
🗑
Which tunic is thickest in an artery?   Tunica Media  
🗑
Which tunic is thickest in a vein?   Tunica Externa  
🗑
Which single tunic is present in capillaries?   Tunica Intima  
🗑
How is blood flow different in arteries compared to veins?   Arteries carry blood away from the heart, have higher pressure. Veins opposite  
🗑
What are the 3 types of arteries found in the body?   Elastic, muscular, arteriole  
🗑
What anatomical structures help to regulate blood flow through the capillary beds?   Precapillary sphincter, shunt, true capillary, venule  
🗑
What vessel type typically has the largest lumen?   vein  
🗑
What 3 adaptations help return venous blood to the heart?   Venous valves, muscle pump, pulmonary pump  
🗑
Atherosclerosis   artery narrowing due to plaque buildup  
🗑
Varicose Veins   Veins become enlarged and twisted, distended. Only a cosmetic issue on the surface, can be dangerous deep.  
🗑
