1. Nutrients

2. Hormones

3. Anti bodies]]> 2018-04-20 13:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822895 Formed Elements jusmon264 https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822896 2018-04-20 13:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822896 Erythrocytes (also known as red blood cells ) jusmon264 https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822897
  • Primary function: 
    • - respiratory gas transport 
    - hemoglobin binds to O2

    • Describe how the cell's shape and lack of mitochondria assist the cell in effectively carrying its primary function. 
    the shape ultimately helps with the transportation of oxygen, since they don't have a mitochondria, they do not consume the O2 they transport

  • Why is the leukocyte the only formed element that is considered a "complete cell"? - they contain nuclei and organelles

    • Primary function of a Leukocyte: defense against diseases

    • What is the difference between Granulocytes and Agranulocytes? Agranulocytes  lack visible cytoplasmic granules while granulocytes are large and shorter lived than RBCs and contain lobed nuclei

    - sickle cell: caused by mutation, a sickle shaped,
    - iron def.: impairs O2 absorption, not sickle shaped
    Which type of anemia is caused by a mutation?
    - sickle cell
    Why does iron deficiency cause symptoms?
    - because of the lack of oxygen absorption
    Does a person with iron deficiency have cells that are sickle in shape? - no]]>     2018-04-20 13:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822899     Platelets jusmon264 https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822901 Primary Function: form temporary platelet plug that helps seal breaks in blood vessels ]]> 2018-04-20 13:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822901 Indetify each type of Luekocyte in the diagram below (type the name above each cell.) jusmon264 https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822902   neutrophils eosinophils basophils monocytes lymphocytes]]> 2018-04-20 13:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822902 Granulocyte function jusmon264 https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822904 Which type of granulocyte would be found in inflamed sites of the body?
    - basophils
    If a person had a tapeworm within their digestive system, which granulocyte would release digestive enzymes on the surface of the worm.
    - eosinophils
    Which granulocytes accounts for 50-70% of the white blood cells?
    - neutrophils

  • What type of Agranulocyte specializes in fighting against tumors? 
    • - T lymphocytes 
    • What type of Agranulocyte differentiates into macrophages? 
    - monocytes

    - Can significantly reduce blood flow until other mechanisms can kick in

    What are some things that could trigger it?
    - Direct injury to vasc. smooth muscle
    - Chemicals released by endothelial cells and platelets
    - pain reflexes    ]]>     2018-04-20 13:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822910     Hemostasis step 2 jusmon264 https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822913 What must happen before the platelets will stick to the walls of blood vessels?
    -  there has to be collagen fibers that are exposed when vessel is damaged
    What role does ADP play in platelet plug formation? -causes more platelets to stick and release their contents

    What is this process considered a positive feedback cycle?  - As the platelet bind to the site of injury more chemicals are released to further stimulate platelet aggregation]]>     2018-04-20 13:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822913     Hemostasis step 3 jusmon264 https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822915 What does coagulation do for the platelet plug? - reinforces platelet plug with fibrin threads]]> 2018-04-20 13:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jusmon264/2znrk81ayelc/wish/253822915
