Question 10

healthy range of hematocrit

Answer 10

Answer 12

RBC

Question 13

RBC are filled with

Answer 13

hemoglobin

Question 14

red proteins that bind to O2 and CO2 (found in RBC)

Answer 14

hemoglobin

Question 15

life cycle of RBC:

Answer 15

made by stem cells, travel through blood (ab 4months) till it denatures, removed by liver, liver breaks down hemoglobin, exited out of body through intestines.

Question 16

Question 17

urobilin

Answer 17

chm from hemoglobin break down. its released through urine (yellow)

Question 18

Answer 18

hematopoiesis

Question 19

hematopoietic stem cells are found in

Answer 19

RBM

Question 20

Luekopoises is the formation of

Answer 20

WBC from hematopic stem cell

Question 21

erythropoiesis is the formation of

Answer 21

RBC from hematopic stem cell

Question 22

thrombopoiesis is the formation of

Answer 22

megakaryocytes which produce platelets

Question 23

condition of abnormally high hematocrit (blood is more viscous and clots easier)

Answer 23

polycythemia

Question 24

condition where blood cant carry sufficient O2 and causes low hemaglobin

Answer 24

anemia

Question 25

genetic condition where abnormal hemoglobin clumps together to become weirdly shaped therefore causing clotting

Answer 25

sickle cell

Question 26

genetic condition where half of the hemaglobin is dysfunctional

Answer 26

sickle cell trait

Question 27

molecule thats a hybrid between phospholipid and carbohydrate on RBC surface

Answer 27

glycolipid

Question 28

4 ABO types

Answer 28

A, B, AB, O

Question 29

RBC can have a Rh glycoprotein. this is called:

Answer 29

Rh Blood type

Question 30

Two types of Rh Blood

Answer 30

Rh+ and Rh-

Question 31

Blood transfusion concerning Rh

Answer 31

pregnant Rh- mother with a Rh+ fetus and the babies blood could cause mom to create antiRh antibodies therefore killing the 2nd fetus if mom gets pregnant again

Question 32

body’s response to bleeding/broken blood vessels

Answer 32

hemostasis

Question 33

sm muscle contracts at the site of blood vessel injury and decreases blood flow across damage site.

Answer 33

vasoconstriction

Question 34

platelets bind and stick to CT then drop into blood vessel’s walls

Answer 34

platelet plug formation

Question 35

cells in blood vessel wall at the damage site surround tissue and release enzymes. the enzymes trigger formation of protein fibrin.

Answer 35

cogulation
