where do erythrocytes get trapped
in spleen and are destroyed by macrophages

lost from body in urine
bilirubin

engulf damaged blood cells and destroy them into their individual components
macrophages
-
when erythrocytes are destroyed what happens to them?
they are broken into amino acids, new RBC and bilirubin
-
when the blood gets artificially diluted with fluid is it known as
athletes anemia
-
disorder of globin portion of hemoglobin
thalassemia
-
when you have thalassemia you have a
higher concentration of CO2 in blood
-
have a problem with the heme group on hemoglobin
sickle cell anemia
-
when you have sickle cell anemia, the
heme group bursts destroying the structure and blood transfusions are needed
-
have more RBC, meaning you can carry more oxygen to perform better
blood doping among athletes
-
white blood cells are known as
leukocytes
-
the only complete cells
leukocytes
-
how do leukocytes move out of blood
by diapedesis
-
what is diapedesis
squeezing through pores
-
how do WBC move
through tissues by amoeboid motion following a chemical trail
-
2 major types of WBC
- granulocytes
- agranulocytes
-
contain cytoplasmic granules
granulocytes
-
3 types of granulocytes
- neutrophils
- eosinophils
- basophils
-
-
are without cytoplasmic granules
agranulocytes
-
Never Let Monkeys Eat Bananas (in order of abundance)
- Neutrophils
- Lymphocytes
- Monocytes
- Eosinophils
- Basophils
-
pores on surface
fenestrations
-
has 3-6 lobes
multilobed nucleus
-
characteristics of neutrophils
- multilobed nucleus
- twice the size of RBC
- phagocytose bacteria
- has granules
-
engulf bacteria and destroy it
phagocytosis
-
characteristics of eosinophils
- bilobed nuclues
- course granules stain deep red to crimson
- twice the size RBC
- spec in nucleus
-
this releases digestive enzymes to kill worms
eosinophils
-
characteristics of basophils
- course, dark purple granules- so dark you can barely see the outline of nucleus
- twice the size of RBC
-
release histamine, attract other WBC to the area and act as an immune response
basophils
-
characteristics of lymphocyte
- large, dark purple nucleus that occupies 95% of volume of cell
- about the size of RBC
- act as immune response
-
cytoplasm of a lymphocyte looks like a
crescent moon and has not granules
-
characteristics of monocytes
- large, dark purple nucleus
- 3x the size of RBC
- largest type of cell
-
these leave blood stream acting to phagocytose viruses and bacteria
monocytes
-
the nucleus of a monocyte resembles a
kidney and has no granules
-
fragments of cells or what used to be megakaryocytes
platelets
-
process of blood clotting
hemostasis
-
rupture through sinusoid capillaries, large irregular spaces and create platelets
megakaryocutes
-
megakaryocytes last for
10 days, age quickly
-
do not have a nucleus so that cant make protein
megakaryocytes
-
3 phases of hemostasis
- vascular spasm
- platelet plug formation
- coagulation
- prothrombin activator formed
- conversion into thrombin
- fibrin seals the hole
-
is the vascular spasm phase of hemostasis what happens
vasoconstriction reduces blood flow
-
what happens during platelet plug formation phase of hemostasis
platelets swell, and adhere to each other, which is an ex of a beneficial positive feedback mechanism
-
what happens during the coagulation phase of hemostasis
blood is transformed from a liquid to a gel
-
has glucose attached to it aka agglutinogens
glycoprotein
-
what does thrombin convert
fibrinogen to fibrin
-
soluble, cant see it
fibrinogen
-
comes out of solution and becomes insoluble
fibrin
-
-
least common blood type
AB
-
if you have no agglutionogens on blood surface than you have what blood type
blood type O
-
anything foreign to your body
antigens
-
chemicals your body makes against antigens
antibody
-
when the same antigen and antibody binds what happens? opposite?
- your body will try to destroy the antigen
- leaves it alone bc body doesn't recognize it
-
contains antibodies
plasma
-
universal recipeient? universal donor?
-
which blood type has no antibodies
AB
-
which blood type has both antibodies
O
-
people with blood type A have what in their plasm
anti-B
-
people with blood type B have what in plasma?
anti- B
-
people with blood type AB have what in their plasma
no antibodies
-
people with blood type O have
A and B antibodies in their plasma
-
RH (+) means ? RH (-)?
- have more than 1 RH agglutinogen
- have NO agglutinogens
-
if you are Rh (-) you can donate to someone who is ____, but if you are rh(+) you cant donate to someone who is ____
-
fluid going through blood vessel aka the study of blood flow
rheology
-
-
the more viscous it was, the
longer it took for the fluid to empty out of the L shaped tube
-
if you double viscosity of blood, it will be reduced to
50% of what is used to be (F= 1/2)
-
when donating blood what happens to the antibodies?
they are filtered out
-
A, B and O can give to
AB
-
A cant give blood to
B or O
