Blood Pt 2 Flashcards
all three blood cells come from this
hemocytoblast
stem cell in red bone marrow
hemocytoblast
cell that has not yet fully developed; can develop into several different cell types
stem cell
how long to red blood cells last
about four months
what are the four things hemocytoblasts turn into
lymphoid, myeloid, platelet, proerythroblast
five cell stages of erythropoiesis
1)proerythroblast 2)erythroblast (then blood) 3)reticulocyte 4)erythrocyte
what acts on the hemocytoblast ultimately turning it into a RBC
erythropoietin
at which point of cell development does it become a committed cell to RBC
proerythroblast
this makes four types of white blood cells
myeloid stem cells
four myeloid stem cells
1)neutrophils 2)basophils 3)eosinophils 4)monocytes
this makes lymphocyte
lymphoid stem cells
this turns on when sick(production is increased)
leukopoiesis and leukopoietin
aka thrombocyte
platelet
you do not want to overstimulate because this causes excessive clotting (ie/stroke)
platelet
process of increasing platelet production
thrombopoiesis and throbopoietin
its function is immunity
leukocytes aka WBC
