Red Blood CellsRed Blood Cells
Biconcave discs ……gives large surface area
No Nucleus
Flexible Cell membranes
Made in bone marrow of ribs & sternum
Contain Haemoglobin…(has a high affinity for oxygen)
No mitochondria

White Blood CellsWhite Blood Cells
Two types
Have a Nucleus
1. Lymphocytes
Formed in bone marrow and mature in spleen
2. Monocytes
Protect against disease
No definite shape
Produce antibodies
Engulf microorganisms

PLATELETSPLATELETS
Cell fragments
Made in bone marrow
No nucleus
Function in clotting

PlasmaPlasmaComposed of mainly water which as a transport medium for the cells and dissolved substances
Dissolved substances include
Digestion products ….Glucose, amno acids, Fatty acids, glycerol, minerals and vitamins
Waste….Carbon dioxide, urea
Hormones….eg Insulin
Antibodies
