1.The cardiovascular system consists of the blood, heart, and blood vessels. 2. Blood is a liquid connective tissue that consists of cells and cell fragments surrounded by a liquid extracellular matrix (blood plasma). 19.1 Functions and Properties of Blood 1. Blood transports oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, wastes, and hormones. 2. It helps regulate pH, body temperature, and water content of cells. 3. It provides protection through clotting and by combating toxins and microbes through c...

Week 7 Case Study: Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Chamberlain University BIOS255 1. Carbon monoxide binds to hemoglobin more than oxygen due to its greater affinity for hemog lobin. When exposed to Carbon monoxide oxygen cant bind to hemoglobin resulting in lack of oxygen throughout the body. 2. The pulse oximeter is a noninvasive device typically used to measure the saturation of oxygen in a patient’s blood. This is different from a CO- Oximeter which is used to measure levels of carboxyhemoglobin...

Week 3 Case Study: Hypoproteinemia Chamberlain University BIO255 Describe all the constituents contained in plasma and their concentrations. As we look at the co mponents of blood, the 55% that consists of plasma includes water which serves as a solvent for carrying other substances, Ions, such as sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, and bicarbonate that involve osmotic balance, pH buffering and the regulation of membrane permeability (Bertholf, 2014). The plasma also consists of the...

BIOS 255 Week 1 Case Study-Coagulation 1.Discuss which clotting factors the PT and PTT test evaluate and whether each test measures the intrinsic or the extrinsic pathways. 2.Describe the common coagu lation pathway. 3.Based on Jessie’s test, which factor deficiency do you believe he has and why? 4. Jessie’s clotting factor disease is seen more often in males. Please explain why. 5.If both the PT and the PTT tests were abnormally long, which part of the coagulation pathway would be affected?...
