A

fight parasite

63
Q

acid staining granules

A

eosinophils

64
Q

second rarest WBC

A

Eosinophil

65

basic staining granules

A

basophil

67
Q

most rare type of WBC

A

basophil

68
Q

lymphocyte function

A

kill infected cells and pathogens, produce antibodies, present antigens

69

which type of WBC provides long-term immunity

A

lymphocyte

70

platelet formation

90
Q

how are platelets formed

A

by sheering off of the processes of megakarocytes

91
Q

megakarocytes

giant cells living in red bone marrow

92
Q

hemostasis steps

A

93
Q

vascular spasm

A

constriction of broken vessels

94
Q

vascular spasm is caused by

A

pain receptors, smooth muscle injury

95
Q

what hormone releases platelets

A

serotonin

96
Q

platelet plug

A

platelets sticking together

97
Q

when don’t platelets stick together

A

in unbroken vessels because of smooth muscle and the tunica intima coated with prostacyclin

98
Q

when do platelets stick together

A

in broken vessels because they stick to collagen fibers and rough surfaces

99
Q

how do platelets activate when sticking

A

grow pseudopods and go through degranulation to attract more platelets

100
Q

what do platelet plugs produce

A

a loose closure

101
Q

coagulation

A

tight closure of a broken blood vessel

102
Q

two steps of coagulation

A

fibrinogen is converted to fibrin, which binds vessel walls and platelets together

103
Q

two versions of fibrinogen activation

A

intrinsic and extrinsic mechanism

104
Q

intrinsic mechanism is initiated by

A

platelets

105
Q

extrinsic mechanism is initiated by

A

damaged blood vessels

106
Q

is intrinsic or extrinsic mechanism faster

A

extrinsic

107
Q

what does fibrinogen activation produce

A

activated factor X

108
Q

fibrinogen Activation common final pathway steps

A
  1. Factor X activates Prothrombin
  2. Prothrombin -> Thrombin
  3. Thrombin -> Fibrinogen
  4. Fibrinogen -> Fibrin
  5. Fibrin forms a polymer and clots
109
Q

Fibrinogen Activation creates a positive/negative feedback loop

A

positive
