2. gases

3. hormones]]> 2018-04-24 14:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848303 Formed Elements carbol345 https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848304 2018-04-24 14:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848304 Erythrocytes (also known as red blood cells ) carbol345 https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848305
  • Primary function: dedicated to respiratory gas transport


    • Describe how the cell's shape and lack of mitochondria assist the cell in effectively carrying its primary function. 
    they're bioconcave which means that they have more surface area to hold more oxygen. They do not consume the oxygen they transport bc they lack mitochondria

  • Why is the leukocyte the only formed element that is considered a "complete cell"?
    • its the only one with nuclei and organelles
    • Primary function of a Leukocyte: 
    its primary function is defense against disease
    • What is the difference between Granulocytes and Agranulocytes? 
    agranulocytes do not contain visible cytoplasmic granules where granulocytes do.

    sickle cell is caused by a mutation of DNA where iron deficiency impares o2 absorption
    Which type of anemia is caused by a mutation? 
    sickle cell
    Why does iron deficiency cause symptoms? 
    because we need iron in our blood for clotting
    Does a person with iron deficiency have cells that are sickle in shape? 
    no they are normal shape ]]>     2018-04-24 14:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848307     Platelets carbol345 https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848308 Primary Function: form temporary platelet plug that helps seal break in blood vessels]]> 2018-04-24 14:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848308 Indetify each type of Luekocyte in the diagram below (type the name above each cell.) carbol345 https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848309 neutrophils eosinophils basophils monocytes lymphocytes]]> 2018-04-24 14:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848309 Granulocyte function carbol345 https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848310 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? 
    • lymphocytes
    • What type of Agranulocyte differentiates into macrophages? 
    monocytes

    significantly reduces blood flow until other mechanisms can kick in

    What are some things that could trigger it? 
    direct injury to vascular smooth muscle, pain reflexes]]>     2018-04-24 14:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848314     Hemostasis step 2 carbol345 https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848315 What must happen before the platelets will stick to the walls of blood vessels? 
    vessels must be damaged and collagen fibers must be exposed
    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 more platelets stick they release more chemicals which cause more platelets to stick and release more chemicals ]]>     2018-04-24 14:27:28 UTC https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848315     Hemostasis step 3 carbol345 https://padlet.com/carbol345/9wafn6gywqs3/wish/254848316 What does coagulation do for the platelet plug?
