Introduction
Essential for transport of substances between body cells and external environment
More than just a liquid Blood cells Carbohydrates Proteins Lipids

Blood
General facts Adult males have 6 qts of blood (1.5 gal) Adult females have closer to 3.5 qts (.8
gal) Helps maintain homeostasis
Ion and water transport throughout the bodyHeat distributionMovement of food

Parts of Blood
Plasma Approx. 55% by volume Mostly water Also find proteins, carbs, hormones,
vitamins, and cellular waste here

Parts of Blood
Formed elements AKA: Hematocrit The other 45% of blood volume The cellular parts of blood
Red Blood CellsWhite Blood CellsPlatelets
*All three are formed in red bone marrow

Blood Cells
Red Blood Cells
![Page 7: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Blood Cells
Red Blood Cells AKA: Erythrocytes Shape = biconcave discs
Increases surface area for better O2 uptakeHelps RBCs squeeze through small vessels
When mature, RBCs lack a nucleus Live about 120 days
![Page 8: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Blood Cells
Red Blood Cells Why Red???
Contain hemoglobin proteinHemoglobin has iron in itHemoglobin has a high affinity for oxygenWhen iron and oxygen combine you get a red
color
![Page 9: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Blood Cells
The color of blood Healthy individuals = pink Individuals with breathing problem = blue
When you don’t get enough O2 to your tissues = hypoxiaHypo - belowOx - oxygen
The blue color is called cyanotic

Blood Cells
Red Blood Cell Count The number of RBCs in a mm3 of blood Primary function of RBCs = carrying
oxygen from the lungs to the body Red blood cell count is tied closely with
blood’s oxygen-carrying capacity Too few RBCs or too little iron for the
hemoglobin in RBCs = anemia
![Page 12: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Blood Cells
Red Blood Cell Production Happens in the red bone marrow Controlled through a Negative feedback
mechanismReceptor = Liver sensing a lack of oxygenEffector = Liver producing hormone
erythropoietinEffect = Bone marrow responds by producing
more RBCs

Blood Cells
Red Blood Cells Sickle-Cell Anemia
Genetic disorderHemoglobin is misshapenRBCs are stiff and don’t
pass through vessels easily.
![Page 14: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Blood Cells
White Blood Cells AKA: Leukocytes Major part of immune system Two major groups
Granulocytes - have granules in cytoplasm Neutrophils - eat bacteria Eosinophils - kill parasites Basophils - control blood flow to infected area
Agranulocytes - no grains in cytoplasm Monocytes - eat bacteria Lymphocytes - produce antibodies (proteins) that
attach to and destroy foreign bodies
Granulocyte

Blood Cells
Platelets AKA: Thrombocytes Not complete cells; fragments Life span of about 10 days Major component of blood clotting
![Page 16: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Blood Cells
Leukemia Cancer affecting leukocytes Excessive number of WBCs are produced
WBCs are immatureCan’t fight infection
Extra WBCs crowd out platelets and RBCsLeukemia patients often bruise easilySome suffer from anemia
Treatments include chemotherapy, radiation, or even bone marrow transplant
![Page 17: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Plasma
92% waterPlasma Proteins
Globulins - help transport lipids and fat-soluble vitamins
Fibrinogen - used in clot formation (discussed later)
Albumins - help hold water in the vessels
![Page 18: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Plasma
Carries Nutrients Glucose
Absorbed by intestinesTransported to cells for energy……or to liver for storage as glycogenRemember homeostatic mechanism from Ch1
Amino acidsTaken to liver for storage or breakdown into
energy-rendering molecules
![Page 19: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Plasma
Carries Nutrients Lipids
Excellent source of energyHydrophobic (problem???)Must combine with globulins to be transported
Form a complex called a lipoprotein
![Page 20: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Plasma
Carries Nutrients Cholesterol levels
Dieticians recognize different types of lipids in the blood
Low-density lipids (LDL) Primarily cholesterol with little protein “Bad” cholesterol
High-density lipids (HDL) Little cholesterol with large protein molecule “Good” cholesterol
![Page 21: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Plasma
Carries Nutrients Waste
Urea (primary component of urine) and carbon dioxide dissolve in plasma
ElectrolytesA term that refers to any salt (ion) dissolved in
plasmaIncludes sodium, calcium, phosphate,
potassium, etc…

When you get cut
Hemostasis is the stoppage of bleedingThree steps
Blood vessel spasms Platelet plug formation Coagulation
![Page 23: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Hemostasis
Blood vessel spasm Small vessels contract when damaged Platelets release serotonin, contracting
smooth muscles Short term fix. Waiting for a platelet plug to
form…Platelet Plug
Platelets stick to rough surface at break All that is needed in small cuts
![Page 24: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Hemostasis
Coagulation End result = a full blood clot (scab) Clotting factors in blood
Some promote coagulationOthers inhibit it (these dominate when no cut)
Two factors you need to know (and their function)Fibrinogen / FibrinProthrombin / Thrombin
Blood Clot Flow Chart (pg 316)
![Page 25: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Hemostasis
Coagulation Normally, blood doesn’t clot in healthy
vesselsMoving to fast to form clot
An abnormal blood clot in a healthy vessel is called a thrombus
If a thrombus dislodges and moves through vessels = embolus
Hemophilia Genetic condition in which one or more of
the clotting agents are damaged.

Blood Types
There are four different blood groups in the human population Type A Type B Type AB Type O
Different based on antigens found on RBCs.
![Page 27: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Blood Types
Type A blood = A antigens on RBCsType B blood = B antigens on RBCsAB = ?O = ?

Agglutination
Agglutination is the clumping of RBCs following an improper blood transfusion Results in major complications Can be fatal
Caused by response by immune system
![Page 29: Blood](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022102805/554a11f5b4c90507558b4dd3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Agglutination
When you are born, lymphocytes produce antibodies that recognize foreign invaders
Individuals with Type A blood have antibodies that recognize (and clot) Tyep B blood Anit-B antibodies
Type B blood have anti-A antibodiesLock and Key recognition

Rh Types
Named after the rhesus monkey, in which it was discovered
Humans are either Rh+ or Rh-Individuals who are Rh+ have antigens
on their RBCs. You DO NOT make antibodies for this
antigen at birth Must be exposed to the antigen…then
make the antibody
