Question
Answer
What is the function of the cardiovascular system(blood)   to transport materials to and from cells

function of fibrinogen   form clots and produce long, insoluble strands of fibrin  
🗑
hemoglobin   the red pigment that gives whole blood its color; binds and transports oxygen and carbon dioxide  
🗑
structure of RBCs   small, highly specialized discs; thin in middle and thicker at edge  
🗑
importance of RBC shape and size   quickly absorbs and releases oxygen  
🗑
lifespan of RBCs   lack nuclei, mitochondria(no ATP) and ribosomes(no protein)=means no repair and anaerobic metabolism; live about 120days  
🗑
the protein molecule of hemoglobin's function is?   transports respiratory gases  
🗑
phagoctyes break hemoglobin into its components:   globular proteins to amino acids; heme to biliverdin(makes bile green); iron  
🗑
hemoglobinuria   hemoglobin breakdown products in urine due to EXCESS HEMOLYSIS IN BLOODSTREAM  
🗑
hematuria   whole RBCs in urine due to KIDNEY OR TISSUE DAMAGE  
🗑
erythropoiesis   occurs only in myeloid tissue(red bone marrow) in adults; stem cells mature to become RBCs; made in red bone marrow by stem cells  
🗑
hemocytoblasts   stem cells in myeloid tissue divide to produce myeloid stem cells: become RBCs, some WBCs; lymphoid stem cells: become lymphocytes  
🗑
What is required when building RBCs?   amino acids; iron; vitamins B12, B6, and folic acid  
🗑
erythropoietin(EPO)   secreted when oxygen in peripheral tissues is low(hypoxia)-due to disease or high altitude  
🗑
WBCs   aka leukocytes; DO NOT have hemoglobin; have nuclei and other organelles; longer life span  
🗑
WBCs functions   defend against pathogens; remove toxins and wastes; attack abnormal cells  
🗑
most WBCs are in:   connective tissue proper; lymphoid system organs  
🗑
T OR F: WBC can't migrate out of bloodstream   F they can  
🗑
What kind of movement do WBCs have?   amoeboid movement  
🗑
List the types of WBCs   neutrophils; eosinophils; basophils; monocytes; lymphocytes  
🗑
neutrophils   pale cytoplasm granules with: lysosomal enzymes and bactericides(both of these kill any bacterial pathogen); most common  
🗑
neutrophil action   very active; engluf pathogens; digest pathogens; release prostaglandins and leukotrienes; form pus  
🗑
degranulation   removing granules from cytoplasm  
🗑
defensins   attack pathogen membranes(PEPTIDE)  
🗑
T/F: Defensin-rich primary granules fuse with phagcytic vacuoles   T  
🗑
Eosinophils   attack large parasites; excrete toxic compounds; sensitive to allergens; control inflammation w/ enzymes that counteract inflammatory effects of neutrophils and mast cells  
🗑
basophils   small; accumulate in damaged tissue; release histamine-dilates blood vessels; release heparin-prevents blood clotting  
🗑
monocytes   large, spherical; enter peripheral tissues and become marcophages; engulf large particles and pathogens; secrete substances that attract immune system cells and fibrocytes to injured area  
🗑
lymphoctyes   larger than RBCs; migrate in and out of blood; mostly in connective tissues and lymphoid organs; part of the body's specific defense system  
🗑
Name the 3 classes of lymphocytes   T cells; B cells; Natural killer (NK) cells  
🗑
T cells   cell-mediated immunity; attack foreign cells directly  
🗑
B cells   humoral immunity; differentiate into plasma cells synthesize anitbodies  
🗑
natural killer (NK) cells   detect and destroy abnormal tissue cells (cancers)  
🗑
platelets   circulate for 9-12 days; removed by spleen; 2/3 are reserved for emergencies  
🗑
3 functions of platelets   release imprtant clotting chemicals; temporarily patch damaged vessel walls; actively contract tissue after clot formation  
🗑
platelet production =   thromobocytopoiesis: occurs in bone marrow  
🗑
megakaryocytes   giant cells in bone marrow that manufacture platelets from cytoplasm  
🗑
hemostasis   cessation of bleeding  
🗑
3 phases of hemostasis   vascular phase, platelet phase, coagulation phase  
🗑
3 steps of vascular phase   1)endothelial cells contract; 2)endothelial cells release: chemical factors, local hormones, stimulate smooth muscle contraction and cell division;3)endothelial plasma membranes become "sticky":seal off blood flow  
🗑
3 steps of platelet phase   platelet adhesion(attachment);platelet aggregation (stick together); activated platelets release clotting compounds  
🗑
name the 3 coagulation pathways   extrinsic pathway; intrinsic pathway; common pathway  
🗑
extrinsic pathway   begins in the vessel wall:damaged cells release tissue factor(TF); TF+other compounds=enzyme complex; activates Factor X  
🗑
intrinsic pathway   begins with circulating proenzymes: activation of enxymes by collagen;platelets release factors; activates Factor X  
🗑
common pathway   where intrinsic and extrinsic pathways converge: forms enzyme prothrobinase; converts prothrombin to thrombin; thrombin converts fibrinogen to FIBRIN  
🗑
fibrin   fibrillar protein that is polymerised to form a "mesh" that forms a hemostatic plug or clot(in conjuction w/ platelets)  
🗑
hemostasis and clotting:area restriction   anticoagulants(plasma proteins); heparin; protein C=major physiological anticoagulant; prostacyclin=vasodilator; prevents formation of the platelet plug  
🗑
calcium ions, vitamin K and blood clotting   calcium ions (Ca2+) and vitamin K are both essential to the clotting process  
🗑
fibrinolysis   slow porcess of dissolving clot  
🗑
hemostasis-clot retraction   thrombin and tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA): activate plasminogen(proenzyme of plasmin); plasminogen produces plasmin=digest fibrin strands  
🗑
plasma   water, dissolved plasma proteins, other solutes  
🗑
metalloprotein =   hemoglobin(Hb)  
🗑
EPO increases what?   RBC production  
🗑
prostaglandins =   vasodilation  
🗑
leukotrienes = help what and increase what?   help bring in more neutrophils; increase vascular permeability  
🗑
Pus is:   dead neutrophils  
🗑
neutrophils die after how long; what does it become?   after 12-24 days; become pus  
🗑
nitric oxide (gas) diffuses how?   quickly  
🗑
mast cells creats what then what is result   histamine = ^ blood flow  
🗑
heparin is a ?   blood thinner  
🗑
mast cells are in connective tissue so:   don't circulate, stay local  
🗑
T/F: Basophils circulate   T  
🗑
in the vascular phase; where do u want the platlets formation?   keep platalets formation localize (to cut)  
🗑
importance of vascular phase   vasoconstriction = decrease flow and restricting platelet formation  
🗑
what is the ultimate goal of coagulation phase?   making an insoluable wall  
🗑
the hormones and proteins used for clotting keep platelets where?   within the area  
🗑
vitamin K is made where?   liver  
🗑
^ viscosity and you (increase/decrease) resistance to blood flow   increase  
🗑
what are the general characteristics of blood?   high viscosity; slightly alkaline pH (7.35-7.45)  
🗑
fibrocytes maintain what and help?   maintain connective tissue which help in repair  
🗑
T/F: You do not need Calcium in the process of hemostasis   False, you need calcium in the intrinsic and extrinsic pathway of the coagulation phase  
🗑
