In adults the total blood volume is approximately?
About 91% water and 8% solutes.
Blood consists of cells suspended in a solution of about ______
% water and ______% solutes.
Albumins and Globulins
Plasma, the liquid portion of the blood (50% to 55% of blood
volume), contains two major groups of proteins:
Erythrocytes (red blood cells)
Leukocytes (white blood cells)
Platelets (thrombocytes)
The cellular elements of blood are?
Erythrocytes
,What are the most abundant cells of the blood, occupying
approximately 48% of the blood volume in men and
approximately 42% in women?
tissue oxygenation
Erythrocytes are responsible for?
Leukocytes
Constitute approximately 5000 to 10,000 mm3 of blood.
Leukocytes
Which cells defend the body against infection and remove dead
or injured host cells?
Granulocytes (neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils)
Agranulocytes (monocytes, macrophages, lymphocytes)
Leukocytes are classified as?
Macrophages
Remove old and damaged cells and large molecular substances
from the blood by phagocytosis.
Neutrophils
,The most abundant leukocyte in the body?
Neutrophil
The primary granulocyte that defends against infections.
Lymphocytes
The primary cells of the immune response.
Platelets
Disk-shaped cytoplasmic fragments.
Platelets
Essential for blood coagulation and control of bleeding.
Primary (thymus and bone marrow)
Secondary (spleen, lymph nodes, tonsils, and Peyer patches of
the small intestine).
The lymphoid organs are classified as?
Lymphoid organs
The sites of residence, proliferation, differentiation, and function
of lymphocytes and mononuclear phagocytes.
Spleen
The largest of the secondary lymphoid organs.
Spleen
, Functions as the site of hematopoiesis in the fetus, filters and
cleanses the blood, and is a reservoir for lymphocytes and other
blood cells.
Lymphnodes
The site of development or activity of large numbers of
lymphocytes, monocytes, and macrophages.
Macrophages in tissue and lymphoid organs.
The MPS is composed of?
MPS
The main line of defense against bacteria in the bloodstream and
cleanses the blood by removing old, injured, or dead blood cells;
antigen-antibody complexes; and macromolecules.
Hematopoiesis
Term for blood cell production
Occurs in the liver and spleen of the fetus and in the bone
marrow after birth.
Where does Hematopoiesis take place?
Proliferation and Maturation
Hematopoiesis involves two stages:
Hematopoiesis
