lecture 7 Flashcards
in which structure is the oxygen saturation highest neutrophils, basophils, and eosinophils are all
granulocytes
What type of blood can a person with type O blood receive ?
O type
At the end of 120 days, the red blood cell
is removed from the circulation and broken down
prothrombin, thrombin, and fibrinogen
are involved in coagulation
what is the most common cause of myelosuppression
drugs, especially the anticancer drugs
what is vitamin k dependent
prothrombin
the epicardium is a layer of the
pericardium
what is descriptive of a neutrophil
phagocyte
blood flows from the pulmonary capillaries to the pulmonary veins to the left atrium to the left ventricle to the
aorta
rapid breakdown of which blood cell causes jaundice
red blood cell
which anticoagulant is secreted by mast cells (basophils)
heparin
blood flows from the right atrium through which atrioventricular valve to the right ventricle ?
tricuspid
what is an oxygen-carrying blood cell
erythrocytes
erythropoietin
stimulates the bone marrow to make RBC
this blood cell secretes both histamine and heparin
basophil
what is the breakdown product of heme
bilirubin
the purpose of this structure is to delay the spread of the. signal from the atrium to the ventricles
AV node
normal sinus rhythm (NSR)
cardiac impulse originates in the sinoatrial node
the cause of ventricular hypertrophy
the ventricle is working too hard
what supplies oxygenated blood to the heart muscle
coronary arteries
what blood cell is elevated in people with allergies and parasitic diseases
eosinophil
in which structure is the oxygen saturation highest
pulmonary vein
Which of the following is characteristic of the activated platelet?
Stickiness
Which of the following is most likely to be characterized by severe pain, organ damage, and hemolysis?
sickle cell anemia
Erythroblastosis fetalis is primarily a problem involving
agglutination and hemolysis
A hematocrit of 35% (male) is most often indicative of
deficiency of RBCs as in anemia
what best describes prothrombin and. fibrinogen
clotting factors
What is true regarding mediastinum
the mediastinum is a space between the lungs
What is part of the blood flow through the heart
left atrium
Blood type called the universal recipient
type ab
event that causes the pulmonic valve to open
an increase in the pressure within the right ventricle
Name of valve that prevents backflow of blood into the right atrium when right ventricle contracts
tricuspid
What receives oxygenated blood
pulmonary veins
Name of condition caused by a diet that is deficient in iron.
anemia
causes of deep vein thrombosis
venous stasis
red and white blood cells are
produced in the bone marrow
