Hypophyseal

Portal System: carries hormones from hypothalamus to anterior pituitary gland.

Erythrocytes

RBCs, carry oxygen

Where are all formed elements made?

In red bone marrow

Basophils appearance

Black, hard to see in nucleus

Ph of blood

7.35-7.45

Hemostasis

Sequence of responses that stops bleeding

3 steps of hemostasis

Vascular spasm, formation of platelet plug, coagulation

Primary lymphoid organs

sites of lymphocyte maturation (EX: red bone marrow, thymus)

Secondary lymphoid organs

are sites where adaptive, specific immune responses take place (EX: lymph nodes, spleen)

B-cells are…

antibodies

Innate resistance

nonspecific: general response

Immunity

adaptive and specific: learned response

Tolerence

Immune system ignores molecules that identify as self

Specificity

Response of immune system tailored to 1 particular antigen

Memory

Vigorous, speedy response to subsequent exposure to same antigen

MHC

self-antigens on all cell membranes, unique to each person

MHC I

On all cells except RBC

MHC II

only antigen presenting cells

Three steps of respiration

Pulmonary ventilation, external respiration, internal respiration

How is 78% of Co2 transported through blood

As a bicarbonate ion

Glycogenesis

Making of glycogen

Glomerular filtration

water and solutes from glomerular blood capillaries move into glomerular capsular space

The only place where filtration occurs

renal corpuscle

Tubular reabsorption

returns substances from filtrate to blood

Tubular secretion

removes additional substances from blood into filtrate

Obligatory reabsorption of water by osmosis is called obligatory because…

It is not adjustable
