Ch 20 Lec 1 - Blood Flashcards
blood is a blank tissue
connective
there are blank liters of blood in the human body
5
formed elements of blood
cells
plasma is the blank of blood
matrix
two functions of blood
transport nutrients and oxygen, maintain stable cellular environment, transport metabolic wastes, transport specialized cells that defend tissues
plasma is blank percent of blood volume
55
two functions of blood plasma
transport nutrients and gases and vitamins, regulate fluid and electrolytes, maintain pH
blood plasma is blank percent water, blank percent protein and blank percent solutes
92, 7, 1
blood plasma differs from blank fluid
interstitial
blood plasma has a greater blank concentration than interstitial fluid
O2
blood plasma has a reduced blank concentration than interstitial fluid
CO2
there is more dissolved blank in blood plasma than interstitial fluid
proteins
waste solutes in blood (two)
urea, ammonia
three types of solutes in blood
waste, electrolytes, organic nutrients
majority of proteins are blank
albumin
albumin is the blank protein
smallest
albumin maintains blank pressure of blood
osmotic
albumin controls blank
blood volume
albumin transports blank materials in blood
fatty
there are 35 percent of blank in plasma proteins
globulins
two types of globulins
immunoglobulins, transport globulins
these plasma proteins make up four percent of plasma
fibrinogen
these plasma proteins are antibodies
immunoglobulins
these proteins bind to compounds and prevent filtering by kidneys
transport globulins
these plasma proteins are for blood clotting and without these, plasma is known as serum
fibrinogen
forty percent of blood and the amount of these are known as hematocrit
erythrocytes
erythrocytes are 99.9 percent of all blank
formed elements (blood cells)
erythrocytes structure are blank
biconcave disks
