do imature redblod cells have nucleaus and organeles?

yesit does

41
New cards

hb is tehj molecule that actually transports …. And to a lesser degree ……

42
New cards

so the rbc hemoglobin carries most of the o2 then who transports and carries the co2?

plasma does

43

the w,bc shown in teh figure is called?

phagocyte

49
New cards

phagocytes def? in the pic which one is teh phagocyte? Which one is the microorganism?

are cells that engullf and estroyes ferign matter or microorganisms , the peanut shpaed i the phagocyte but the microorganism is the yellow ball

50
New cards

when a person has an infection the number of white blood cells ….., why can they divide?

can double , cuz they have nuclei

51
New cards

anotehr type of white blood cells produces?

antibodies

52
New cards

antibodies def?

are proteins that help destroy subsatnces such as bacteria nad viruses that enetr the body and cause disease

53
New cards

explain how the rbc and wbc and platelets structures relate to their function

teh concave shape of rbc gives the, a great amount fo surafgce area in which to absrob and release oxygen

Wbc ability to change shaope helops them move through vessel walls and engul pathogens platelets have a rough surface that hels form blood clots

54
New cards

blood clot?

is a mass of interwoven fibers and blood cells that prevent exces loss of blood from a wound

55
New cards

the stages and structures involved in teh clotting procces

platelets congregate at the damafged site sticking together and forming a small pluug

The vessels constricts slowing blood flow to the area, then special clotting factors are released from the platelets and damaged tissue

These factors begin a series of chemical reaction that occur at the site of the bleeding

The last step in this series bring about the production of a protein caled fibrn, fibrin molecuiles consists iof long sticky chains

Thse chains form a net tah ttraps red blood cells, and the mass of fibrin and red bloos cells hardens into a clot or a scab

56
New cards

special clotng afctors are released from?

platelets and damaged tissue

57
New cards

the last steps in this series is to bring about the production of a ….. called?

Protein fibrin

58
New cards

fibrin m,olecules consists of a ….. and ….

Long and sticky

59
New cards

the mass of fibrin and red blood cells hardens into a …. Or ….

clot, scab

60
New cards

platelets release?

cloottinf protein(enzyme)

61
New cards

fibrin has a shape of a …

net

62
New cards

teh fibrin net tarps in ….. and ….

rbc and platelets

63
New cards

The relase of enzymes from plateklets at the site of damaged blood vessel initiates a …… ……

clotting cascasde

64
New cards

that example was the examel of forming a clot on a?

blood vessel

65
New cards

hemophilia?

is a disorder in where they dont have all teh cloting proteins so blood doenst stop so easily bt today people are treated with ionjection of the missing clotting factors

66
New cards

what might be soem advantages and disadvantages of hemophilia?

they would be less likely to suffer from strojkes and poor blood circulations

But a eprson with it coudl bleed to death

67
New cards

blood type is determiend by the type of ….. present on the …. Of the rbc

antigen, surface

68
New cards

antigen is a?

substance taht stimulates an immune respone

69
New cards

antigens tahta re normaly present in a persons body provoke no response but they do provoke a respoinse when? and in response what do they produce?

a foreign antigen enters the body, antibodies

70
New cards

antigen is an abriviaitin for?

antibody generating substance

71
New cards

what determiens teh compatibility of transfuion?

the presence of antigens on the red blood cells and antibodies in the plasma determine compatibility

72
New cards

in the early …., ….. ….. used blood taken from his laboratory …… and made observations he noticed that when mixing blood sometimes resulted in the cell to ….. togetehr orr ……..

1900, karl landsteiner, , workers clump, agglutinating

73
New cards

what happens when sampels of two diffrent blood types mixed together?

reactions occur between the antigens on the red blood cells and teh antibodies in the plasma casingf cells to agglutinate

74
New cards

what happens when the samples of the same blood type are mixed?

no reaction occursd and the blod cells do not agglutinate

75
New cards

Antigens are technically made where when what are developing?

in the bone marrow when rbc are developing

76
New cards

what are the three most important antigens?

a b and rh

77
New cards

the a b o systems of blood sypes are based on the?

a and b antigens

78
New cards

The abo system

is a means of classifying blood by teh antigenst located on teh surafce of the red blood cells , and teh antibodies circulating in the plasma

79
New cards

a rbc may carry which antigens?

a or b or both or none

80
New cards

how many blood types fo we have acording. To antigens?

4

81
New cards

a and b and ab and o antigens? Antibodies? Get blood? Can give blood?

A b ab and o, b a none a and b , a and o b and o a b ab and o just o

A and ab b and ab ab a b ab and o

82
New cards

o are called? Ab are called?

o are called universal donors, universal recieptents

83
New cards

why are ab recieptents?

cuz they dont have antibodies

84
New cards

why are o universal donors?

cuz they dont have antigens i

85
New cards

if we give blood from a to b what happens?

the antibodies of plasma of b attacks the antigens of a And blood will agulinate

And the antibodies in the plasma of a wil cause an antigen antibody reaction which will cause the body to forma aggluniated blood that wil blockl the flow of the blood through the vessels

86
New cards

for transfusion receiptents must recieve blood that is compatibel wiqtgh their own why?

to avboid blood agglutinate

87
New cards

we have the rh system.

Its an antigen that is soemtimes present ion the surface of red blood cells

88
New cards

why is it named the rh factor?

its named after the rhesus monkey in which it was first discovered

89
New cards

how much percent of united states population is rh positeve? Which means rh is?

85%, present

90
New cards

people who dont ahev teh rh entigen are called?

rh-

91
New cards

what happens when a reciptent has negative and teh donor is positeve?

the antibodies may react withg the antigen and agglutination will ocure

92
New cards

befpore transfer of blood what is very important to know?

blood type and rh factopr

93
New cards

people who ahve rh+ cannot produce?

anti rh antibodies

94
New cards

people who have rh- can produce?

anti rh antibodies

95
New cards

if O- have all three antibodies then when doesnt the body panick when we give siomebody it?

cuz in transfusion when we get the blood out of the body of the donor we take very little ammount of plasma if we do get alot of plasma wef filter it out

96
New cards

how many anitbodies do we have? What ar ethey?

we have 3 , a and b an rh

97
New cards

Why doesnt ab+ have any antibodies?

cuz it has all antigens it knows every type of blood why would it get scared so it doesnt have antibodies

98
New cards

the most seriopus problems of rh incompatibality ocrues during?

pregnancy

99
New cards

rh factor during pregnancy?

the sperm is teh donor and teh egg is teh reciever so + blood sperm cant be given to -blood egg

100
New cards

if teh blood of teh fetus is rh- it doesnt not affct th fetus whether the blood is?

rh + or rh- cuz the baby doesnt have the antigen rather it has the antibodies
