Blood Flashcards
clusters/nests near sinusoids contain ___
clusters/nests away from sinusoids contain ___
RBC & megakaryocytes
granulocytes
associated with allergic reactions, release histaminase
also associated with helminthic & protozoan infections, chronic inflammation
eosinophils
produced by liver & plasma cells, help attack viruses/bacteria & transport iron, lipids, and vitamins
ie antibodies
globulins
how many oxygen molecules bind per hemoglobin protein?
4
Identify cell type.
Basophil
CLPs give rise to ___ cells, and migrate from bone marrow to ___ or ____ where they differentiate.
lymphoid
thymus or lymphoid tissue (lymph nodes)
Identify cell type.
narrow rim of cytoplasm around edges, very dark nucleus that takes up most of the cell
Lymphocyte
what is function of hematopoeisis?
to maintain constant level of different cell types in blood
Identify cell type.
small faint lavender granules, dark nucleus with several lobes, larger than RBC
Neutrophil
these cells stain same color as RBC (acidophilic)
eosinophils
these cells come out of blood stream, work in tissues for defense and repair of injured tissue
leukocytes (WBC)
Identify.
sinusoids
Identify cell type.
Eosinophil
theory that all blood cells arise from a single type of pluripotent stem cell known as a hempatopoietic stem cell
Monophyletic Theory
this cell contains no nucleus, its main function is transportation of respiratory gases
erythrocyte (RBC)
associated with allergic reactions releasing histamine & other vasoactive agents, hypersensitivity
basophils
these cells undergo successive endomitoses to form megakaryocytes.
megakaryoblasts
Identify cell type.
Neutrophil
Identify cell type.
large coarse basophilic granules, light nucleus with 2 lobes
Basophil
T cells travel to ___ to complete differentiation.
B cells mature in the ____.
NK cells mature in the ____.
thymus
bone marrow
bone marrow
formed elements of blood all arise via…
hemopoietic stem cells
Identify cell type.
Monocyte
shape of erythrocyte?
diameter?
biconcave disc
7.8 micrometers
progenitor cells develop into ____ or ____ cells, which mark the beginning of morphologic differentiation
precursor, blast
cell fragments in blood, main function is for clotting
platelets (thrombocytes)
Identify cell type.
erythrocyte
Each heme group on hemoglobin molecule contains…
1 iron atom
do not contain specific granules, nuclei are rounded or indented, also contain azurophilic granules
mononuclear agranulocytes
3 granulocytes are ___, ___, ____
2 agranulocytes are ___, ___
granulocytes = “phils” (basophil, eosinophil, neutrophil)
agranulocytes = “cytes” (lymphocyte, monocyte)
main protein of blood- produced in liver, regulates vascular osmotic pressure (correct amount of water in blood)
albumin
Order of leukocytes in order from most numerous in blood stream to least numerous?
“Never Let Monkeys Eat Bananas”
Neutrophils
Lymphocytes
Monocytes
Eosinophils
Basophils
only true cell in blood, main function is protection
leukocytes (WBC)
