Pernicious Anemia - def. | Due to inadequate vitamin B12 absorption |
Why can't RBC's repair themselves? | They lack genetic material necessary to do so |
What is the average life of an RBC? | 120 days |
Where does the body dispose of C02? | In, then out of the lungs |
What hormone is involved with the regulation of RBC production? | Erythropoietin (EPO) |
What stimulates the secretion of EPO? | Decreased blood oxygen level |
From where is EPO secreted? | Kidneys |
How does EPO affect RBC production? | Increases production |
Condition in which someone would have EPO administered: 1. | Emphysema |
Condition in which someone would have EPO administered: 2. | Bone Marrow Depression |
Condition in which someone would have EPO administered: 3. | Kidney Failure |

After RBC breakdown and recycling of components, what is done with heme? | Iron stored in liver. Bilirubin execreted. |
What is jaundice? | Yellowing of skin due to excess bilirubin in the blood |
Leukocytes contain ___ / microliter of blood. | 5,000-10,000 |
Are WBC's nucleated? | Yes |
Primary functions of WBC's | Defense and phagocytosis |
Name the five types of WBC's | Neutophils, Basophils, Eosinophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes |
Neutrophils: Granulocyte or Agranulocyte? | Granulocyte |
What color is the stain of neutrophils? | Clear |
What are other names of neutrophils? | Segs, Polys, PMN's |
Neutrophils make up what % of WBC's? | 55-70% |
Phagocytosis during an infection/injury involves: | Pus and (absess - walling off of pus) |
What happens to neutrophil production during infection? | Increased production of immature neutrophils |
Basophils: Granulocytes or Agranulocytes? | Granulocytes |
What is the stain color of Basophils | Dark blue |
Basophils make up ___% of WBC's | Less than 1% |
Body's natural blood thinner made from Basophils | Heparin (inflammation) |

Stain color of Eosinophils | Red-pink |
Eosinophils make up ____% of WBC's | 1-3% |
What are two conditions that cause inflammation of eosinophils? | Parasitic infections and allergies |
What is the difference of granulocytes and agranulocytes? | Gran. have granules in the cytoplasm, Agrans. do not. |
Lymphocytes: Granulocyte or agranulocyte? | Agranulocyte |
Lymphocytes make up ___% of WBC's | 25-38% |
Function of lymphocytes | Immune response |
Monocytes: Granulocytes or Agranulocytes? | Agranulocytes |
Monocytes make up ___% of WBC's | 3-8% |
Monocytes contain ______ which are involved in clean up/ eating of large waste particles | Phagocytes |
Monocytes differentiate into: | Macrophages |
Platelets are also called: | Thrombocytes |
Platelets are fragments of: | Megakaryocytes |
Platelets contain ______/microliter of blood | 150,000-450,000 |
An important function of platelets | Blood clotting |
Complete Blood Count (CBC) of RBC's include: | Hemoglobin, hemocrit, reticulocytes |
Complete Blood Count (CBC) of WBC's include: | Percentage of each type (differential count) |
Hemostasis prevents: | Blood loss - through contraction of the blood vessels |
Name the three parts of Hemostasis | Vasospasm, platelet plug formation, blood clot |
Explain vasospasm | Decreased diameter of vessel, and therefore, decreased blood flow |
Explain platelet plug | Platelets stick to the walls of damaged blood vessels to decrease bleeding which then activates clotting factors |
Another name for a blood clot | Coagulation |
During a blood clot, activated clotting factors produce: | Prothrombin activator (PTA) |
During a blood clot why is prothrombin activated? | Form thrombin in the presence of calcium and PTA |
During a blood clot, thrombin activates: | Fibrinogen, which forms a fibrin net |

What kind of cell also releases heparin | Mast cell |
When does clot retraction and fibrinolysis occur? | After a blood clot |
Clot retraction and fibrinolysis process | Plasminogin (activated by TPA: Tissue Plasminogen Activator) - plasmin - clot dissolved. |
What determines blood type? | Antigens on membrane of RBC's |
Where are antibodies present? | Blood plasma |
Antigen-Antibody interaction could result in: | Agglutination (clumping) and eventually hemolysis (bursting of RBC's) |
What can result from incompatible blood groups? | Kidney failure and death |
What must be done before a blood tranfusion? | Blood must be types and cross-matched (donor and recipient blood mixed) |
