🗑
Blood plasma is made of what three key components?   Blood Plasma is made of up of proteins, water, and other solutes.  
🗑
What are the three main proteins found in blood?   The three main proteins found in blood are albumin (54%), globulin (38%), and fibrinogen (7%).  
🗑
What are the six solutes commonly found in blood?   The six solutes commonly found in blood are electrolytes, nutrients, gases, regulatory substances, vitamins, and waste products.  
🗑
What is the definition of a formed element?   The definition of formed elements are red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets; then granular/agranular leukocytes, neutrophil, eosinophils, basophils, T/B lymphocytes, natural killer cells, and monocytes.  
🗑
The three classes of formed elements are...?   The three classes of formed elements are red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.  
🗑
What are the five classes of red blood cells?   RBC (erythrocytes): Neutrophil, basophil, eosinophil, monocyte, and lymphocyte (A,B)  
🗑
Determine the process of red blood cell formation by describing the relationship between the terms of erythrocyte and erythropoesis.   The formation of erythrocytes is termed erythropoesis, the production of RBC alone.  
🗑
Determine the process of red blood cell formation by describing the relationship between reticulocytes and red blood cells.   Near the end of its erythropoesis, an RBC precursor ejects its nucleus to become a reticulocyte (which develops into mature RBCs within 1 to 2 days after release from the red bone marrow.  
🗑
Address the role of a neutrophil.    
🗑
Address the role of a monocyte.    
🗑
Address the role of an eosinophil.    
🗑
Address the role of a basophil.    
🗑
Address the role of B, T, and natural killer cells.

🗑
What are the causes and symptoms of hemophilia?    
🗑
What are the causes and symptoms of leukemia?    
🗑
Reticylocyte   Counting the volume of reticulocytes in a sample of blood-measures rate of erythropoesis.  
🗑
Hematocrit   Counting the percent of a blood sample that is composed of RBCs. Diagnoses anemia.  
🗑
