Q

What are the 8 steps of processing old RBCs?

A
  1. Old RBCs last 6 weeks
  2. Sent to the liver
  3. The liver takes the hemoglobin out of the old RBCs
  4. The iron from the hemoglobin is sent to the bone marrow
  5. Everything else except the hemoglobin is turned into bilirubin
  6. Bilirubin is turned into bile
  7. The bile is sent through the small intestines
  8. Eventually takes it to the toilet (waste)

Q

The process of blood clotting is an example of negative or postive feedback?

A

Positve feedback

As clotting gets under way, each step releases chemicals that accelerate the process. This escalating process is a positive feedbackloop that ends with the formation of a blood clot, which patches the vessel wall and stops the bleeding.

60
Q

What are the first three steps in blood clotting after you cut yourself?

A
  1. The blood vessel spasms to become smaller
  2. Platelets plug to cork the wound
  3. The blood clotting process
61
Q

What is the purpose of the blood vessel spasming in the blood clotting process?

A

To make the blood vessel smaller thus causing less blood flow

62
Q

The platelet plug causes the formation of what?

A

A scab

63
Q

The blood clotting pathways consists of what two different routes (pathways)?

A
  1. Intrinsic Pathway
  2. Extrinsic Pathway
64
Q

What is the location in the blood clotting process for the intrinsic pathway?

A

Intrinsic = within the blood vessels

65
Q

What is the location in the blood clotting process for the extrinsic pathway?

A

Extrinsic = tissue damage (outside of the blood vessel)

66
Q

What is the order of clotthing factors for the intrinsic pathway?

A

Factor XII→Factor XI→Factor IX (with Factor VIII) →Factor X

67

Tissue Factor (TF) III → (with Factor VII) ⇒ Factor X

68
Q

Which blood clotting factor begins the common pathway?

A

Factor X

69
Q

Which clotting factor begins the intrinsic pathway?

A

Factor XII

70
Q

Which clotting factor begins the extrinsic pathway?

A

Tissue Factor (TF) III

71
Q

Tissue Factor III with what other factor begins the common pathway for what pathway?

A

Tissue factor (TF) III pairs with Factor VII in the extrinsic pathway

72
Q

Factor XII turns on what bloot clotting factor? Which pathway?

A

Factor XI

Intrinsic pathway

73
Q

Factor XI turns on what bloot clotting factor? Which pathway?

A

Factor IX

Intrinsic pathway

74
Q

What two blood clotting factors in the instrinsic pathway turn on the common pathway?

A
  • Factor IX
  • Factor VIII
75
Q

The intrinsic and extrinsic pathways have what in common?

A

Both end in Factor X and have the common pathway

76
Q

What is the starting factor in the common pathway?

A

Factor X

77
Q

Factor X pairs up with what factor to turn on Factor II?

A

Factor V

78
Q

What is another name for thrombin?

A

Factor V

79
Q

What is another name for Factor V?

A

Thrombin

80
Q

Factor II leads to what factor of what pathway?

A

Factor I (Fibrin)

Common pathway

81
Q

What is another name for Factor I of what pathway?

A

Fibrin

Common pathway

82
Q

What is another name of Fibrin of what pathway?

A

Factor I

Common pathway

83
Q

Factor I leads to the final step which is the formation of what?

A

A clot
