These bones consist of the nasal maxillary, Palatine, zygomatic, mandible, lacrimal, and inferior nasal conchae, and vomer
What are the facial bones?
These are paired oblong, shape, bones, are side-by-side at the upper and middle part of the face and form the bridge of the nose.
What are nasal bones?
These paired bones unite to form the upper jaw and articulate with all of the facial bones, except for the mandible.
What are the maxillary bone?
These bones helped form the floor of the eye orbits, the lateral walls and floor of the nasal cavity, and most of the hard palate otherwise known as the roof of the mouth.

What is the vomer
The superior border of this facial bone articulates with the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone right underneath the ethmoid bone.
What is the vomer?
The superior portion of this bone is formed by the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone 
What is the nasal septum?
The interior and posterior portion of the nasal septum is formed by this facial bone
What is the vomer
The inferior and anterior portion of the septum is formed by this septal Cartilage
What is the nasal septum?
Name the four paranasal sinuses, a.k.a. nasal sinuses (FEMS)

Red blood cells only live for ____ days because of the wear and tear on their plasma membranes as they squeeze through capillaries
120 days
The function of the cells is the transport, oxygen and nutrients carbon dioxide, and a lack of nucleus, which gives a more surface area to carry hemoglobin

What is the heme portion?
This portion of the red blood cell contains the proteins

This is formed when oxygen combines with hemoglobin
What is oxyhemoglobin which occurs within the capillaries of the lungs
This is formed when carbon dioxide combine to hemoglobin
What is carbon mean no hemoglobin, which is formed when carbon dioxide combines if hemoglobin
This forms when carbon monoxide combine to hemoglobin which has a great infinity for carbon monoxide, and than for oxygen, carbon oxyhemoglobin is formed instead of oxygen, and causes headaches, dizziness, drowsiness and can lead to death
 What is carboxyhemoglobin?
The blood cells have a nucleus, but lack hemoglobin and will help fight infections
What is leukocytes or white blood cells?
Granulocytes and agranulocytes are two types of classifications of these types of blood cells.
What are white blood cells?
This category of white blood cells have tiny granules in cytoplasm. These granules are visible under a light microscope

white blood cells that a fall into this category develop red bone marrow and are called this
What is myeloid tissue? Myelo = marrow
Granulocytes include the following three types of white blood cells
Neutrophils, eosinophils or acidophils, and basophils

What are neutrophils
This type of granulocyte increases and number with allergic conditions and releases histamine’s
What is Eosinophils or acidophils
This type of granulocyte increases during chronic infection, and during healing from infections
What are basophils 
These types of white blood cells do have granules, but they are not visible under the microscope, so they refer to them as this
What are agranulocytes
This substance is what is remaining after the formed elements are removed from blood. It is a yellow color, which not only carries blood cells, but also nutrients antibodies, clotting factor hormones and proteins.
What is plasma?

What is plasma?
This is known as the process of blood clotting or clot formation
What is coagulation?
Thromboplastin (aka thombokinase or cephalin), prothrombin, calcium fibrinogen, and vitamin K are substances in the blood that promote this process
What is clotting?
This thread, like gel substance forms over a cut

What is diapedesis
This proteins found in plasma, aids in the regulating of osmotic pressure
What is serum albumin
Which proteins found in plasma aids in immunity
What is serum globulin
