T/F Flashcards
All formed elements are whole cells?
T/F
False
Platelets are fragments
RBC and WBC are whole
Components of buffy coat after hematocrit procedure?
Leukocytes and platelets
T/F
It is not possible to separate the various components of blood?
False.
Hematocrit procedure can do this.
T/F
Fibrinogen will actively work to clot blood?
False
Fibrin is the active form
In Myeloid hemopoiesis we can produce all formed elements.
True
In red bone marrow
An erythrocyte CFU can differentiate into other formed elements?
False.
It can now only produce RBC
We secrete hormones from the adenohypophysis
True
We secrete hormones in the neurohypophysis
False
- We only release hormones made in the hypothalamus
Prolactin is involved in releasing milk
False
OT releases milk
OT is involved in making milk
False
Prolactin makes milk
Hemostasis is maintaining an internal balance
False
Hemostasis is the process that stops bleeding
Platelet’s primary function is blood clotting
True
Pulmonary arteries transport oxygen-rich blood away from the heart
False
The heart receives blood when the heart contracts
False
It receives blood when its relaxed from the openings in the semilunar valves.
Cardiocytes have contractile proteins that are arranged exactly like skeletal muscle cells
True
The central nervous system tells the heart to contract
False
The cardiac conduction system does
The central nervous system tells the heart to speed up or slow down.
True
The autonomic nervous system will innervate the heart and control the rate of the contractions
True
Sympathetic will increase it by influencing the SA node, AV node, and cardiac muscle
Parasympathetic slows it down with the SA and AV node.
Before the cardiac conduction system fires the heart is completely at rest
True
The ventricles should produce the same stroke volume
True
or edema could develop in lungs or tissues
Tunica media can be involved in regulating blood flow through arteries
True
By using vasomotion (can contract or relax)
The vasovasorum is found in the tunica interna of blood vessels
False
Found in Tunica externa
All of the capillary beds in the body are open at all times
False
Pressure would drop
The heart pumps blood into veins
False
Arteries lead to capillaries
True
All capillaries are functional at the same point in time
False
