    Answer: True
  20. True or False
    Taking hormones will cause a down regulation of hormones produced by the body
    Answer: True
  21. is involved in lots of things; respiration, nutrition, waste removal, water balance, pH balance, internal communication, immune defense, and thermal regulation. It has two main components; Plasma / Serum and Formed Elements
    Blood
  22. is a clear extracellular fluid with electrolytes
    Plasma
  23. is basically plasma without the clotting proteins
    Serum
  24. are basically blood cells and platelets (erythrocytes and leukocytes)
    Formed Elements
  25. is the percentage of red blood cells to the total volume of blood. This is determined by centrifuge that will separate particles. Red blood cells go to the bottom and are normally about 45%
    Hematocrit
  26. is the 2nd layer in the centrifuge and is such a thin layer (less than 1%)
    Buffy Coat
  27. is on top totaling 55%. Blood has viscosity (or thickness) to it with a normal range is 4.5 – 5.5. Viscosity basically measures cohesive factor or power. The lower the number the thinner it is.
    Plasma
  28. is the total number of dissolved solutes in the blood. This is important because it increases the rate of water pulled in by the interstitial tissues (between the cells). When vs. tissue where it is greater, water is going to flow into the circulatory system. The higher in the tissue would pull water in other direction causing edema or swelling in the tissues
    Blood Osmolarity
  29. of the blood is mostly controlled by proteins in the blood, red blood cells and sodium. The contributions of proteins to the blood osmotic pressure are called colloid osmotic pressure. It refers to the pressure created by the proteins that are in the blood. Things that can affect protein concentration in the blood would be liver disease, kidney disease, or severe burns
    Osmolarity
  30. will oft time cause pools of fluid to accumulate in the abdominal cavity which is referred to as acsities
    Severe Burns
  31. is not getting enough protein in their diet causing swollen abdomen and skinny arms and legs
    Kwashiorkor
  32. There are 3 types of globulins floating in the blood;
    alpha, beta and gamma globulins
  33. are tissues that produce blood are referred to as
    Hemopoietic
  34. is referred to the production of formed elements (RBC, WBC, and Platelets).
    Haematopoieses
  35. Most formed elements are produced by the _______________, which is red bone marrow
    Myeloid Tissue
  36. Most formed elements are produced by the myeloid tissue which is red bone marrow. This process begins with stem cells called _____________. They are capable of becoming multiple cells because they are stem cells
    Hemocytoblasts
  37. refers to red blood cell production and your body produces about 2.5 million every second of every day of your life
    Erthropoiesis
  38. is oxygen storage molecules that are made inside the muscle cells to help us store oxygen
    Myoglobin
  39. in blood transports oxygen, iron is a critical part of this molecule.
    Hemoglobin
  40. or WBC production is referred to as Leukopoiesis
    Leukocytes
  41. is white blood cell production that is mostly produced in the red bone marrow. Some will mature there but the rest will go to the thymas gland and mature there. Once matured they migrate to the spleen and lymph nodes from here are distributed to lymph tissue
    Leukopoiesis
  42. is platelet production
    Thrombopoysis
  43. have 2 main functions; transport oxygen and carry carbon dioxide the opposite direction. They lack mitochondria which is responsible for the cell respiration. They have to use up anaerobic fermentation for their energy
    Erythrocytes
  44. megakaryoblast replicates its DNA over and over again without cell division and it becomes a giant cell called a
    Megakaryocyte
  45. Megakarocytes explodes basically like a blown up balloon until it pops, exploding into these fragments called __________________. They floating around in the blood and about 1/3 of them are stored in the spleen and released when needed
    Functional Platelets
  46. would be a deficiency of RBC. Problems with would be hypoxia (low oxygen), decrease blood osmolarity would go down causing anemia, and blood viscosity to the point that it could actually cause cardiac failure
    Anemia
  47. is oxygen deprivation (or lack of)
    Hypoxia
  48. has to do with your genetic code. Genes within your DNA will code a cell marker to your red blood cells. 3 common aliases of blood types would be ABO’s. The type of marker that is on the outside of the blood cells are actually a sugar type molecule. The type of sugar that is added is galactose
    Blood Typing
  49. causes the blood cells to become very sticky and because they are sticking they are not getting into the capillaries leaving the cells without oxygen. Hypoxia will begin to occur, maybe even clots. If not fixed quickly then death could occur
    Glutination
  50. The universal donor
    O negative
  51. Universal recipient
    AB positive
