BLOOD, HEMOSTASIS, AND BLOOD GROUP Flashcards
-Distribution of gases nutrients, metabolic and metabolic waste
-Hormone transport
-Regulates body temperature
-Regulates body PH (7.35 to 7.45)
-Protection against infections(WBC)
-Cell formation
BODY FUNCTION
-The more oxygen we have the more brighter our blood is
-The less oxygen we have the darker our blood
BLOOD
-Liquid part of our blood
-55% of our blood volume
PLASMA
-Red blood cells
-White blood cells
-Platelets
FORMED ELEMENT
-Consist of 99% water
-The water will act as a solvent for other substances
-Proteins are the majority of the other substances
BLOOD PLASMA (1)
-Blood plasma 55%
-Buffy coat less than 1%
-Red blood cells 45%
BLOOD PLASMA (2)
.Men 47 (+/- 5%)
.Women 42 (+/- 5%)
-The higher the value, the higher the viscosity
BLOOD VISCOSITY NORMAL VALUE
VISCOSITY=THICK
-Percentage of the blood that consist of erythrocytes
HEMOCRIT same as (HEMATOCRIT)
-Occurs in red bone marrow and it is the formation of all formed elements
-All formed elements start as stem cells (hemocytoblast)
BLOOD CELL FORMATION
-HEMOPOIESIS/HEMATOPOIESIS
-Is driven by the influence of hormone and growth depending on the needs of the body
PROCESS OF HEMOPOIESIS/HEMATOPOIESIS
-Live for 100 to 200
-Constantly reproducing them
-Most numerous cells of blood
-The red color comes from protein (Hemoglobin)
-No molecules or mitochondria cannot use the oxygen to generate ATP
ERYTHROCYTES=RED BLOOD CELLS
-The stem cells transforms into a proerythroblast
-Develops into a erythroblast
-Develops further into a reticulocyte (which can already transport O2)
ERYTHROPOIESIS
Immature red blood cells
RETICULOCYTE
Mature red blood cells
ERYTHROCYTE
Transport of oxygen from lungs to the tissue and is dependent on hemoglobin
ERYTHROCYTES MAIN FUNCTION
-Men 16(+/-2)
-Women 14(+/-2)
-Globin=protein, Hemo= one atom of iron
HEMOGLOBIN NORMAL VALUE
In order to be fully oxygenated we need…..
4 MOLECULES
The graveyard to the RBCs
SPLEEN
-Oxygen deficiency in tissues
-There are receptors in the kidneys and liver that can sense it
HYPOXIA
Stimulate the red bone marrow to produce more
SECRETE ERYTHROPOIETIN (EPO)
Can increase EPO production
TESTOSTERONE
Blood low amount of RBCs
ANEMIA
