NAME: Vada Hedgeman DATE: 26 September, 2023 Lab Report Hematology: Introduction to Blood This lab report is for you to reflect on what you completed and learned in this simulation, and to practice your written scientific communication skills. Include enough detail to clearly describe the lab experience to someone who understands the concepts but has not participated in the simulation. Use correct scientific terminology whenever applicable. Sections 1. Describe the overall objective and make a hypothesis 2. Introduce relevant background knowledge on this topic 1 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved
3. Summarize the steps taken in the simulation 4. Explain any obtained results 5. Discuss the conclusions and implications 2 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved
1. Describe the overall objective and make a hypothesis. What is the overall purpose of the experiments or activities? Make a hypothesis. Recall that the hypothesis is a claim that answers a question or makes a prediction about an event that has not yet occurred. Hint: The purpose is often stated in the welcome message of the simulation (as shown in the example image below). For your entry make sure to include the following: Include one statement that describes the overall objective in your own words. Include one statement that describes the hypothesis. 3 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved

As part of this experiment, I looked at the red and white blood cell morphologies of a patient's blood to determine whether they were healthy or indicative of any underlying diseases. We conducted experiments on a small number of patients in order to learn more about the properties of blood. It was discovered that each individual's outcomes are determined by their own blood type. Inherited or even environmental factors may have a role in the development of some blood illnesses. 2. Introduce relevant background knowledge on this topic. What have you learned in class or researched on your own that would help prepare for this simulation? Hint: You can review the “THEORY” section in the simulation (as shown in the example image below) 4 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved
For your entry make sure to include the following: Include at least three important details from the lab “Theory” tab, the Lab Manual, or other resources, in your lab report that supports the simulation activity. They may develop from myeloid progenitor cells into myelocytes or from lymphoid progenitor cells into lymphocytes. Both types may be traced back to bone marrow stem cells. The three main types of lymphocytes are B cells, T cells, and Natural killer cells. Platelets (Platelets, also termed thrombocytes, are the smallest of all blood cells, with a diameter of roughly 2–4 m and a discoid shape. Myelocytes include: monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, and neutrophils. In the event of a cut or scrape, platelets are drawn to the area to control blood clotting and speed healing. 5 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved
Hematopoietic cell (or hemocyte) is another term for a blood cell. These blood cells account for around 45 percent of the whole. Blood plasma makes up the remainder of the volume. 6 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved

3. Summarize the steps taken in the simulation. Explain all steps you completed, including the equipment and techniques you used. Hint: You can use the “MISSION” tab in the LabPad as inspiration (as shown in the example image below). For your entry make sure to include the following: Document each step you completed, including the equipment and techniques you used. There is a class of medications known as anticoagulants that work to stop blood from clotting. To avoid the formation of blood clots, anticoagulants are utilized. tools for use in the laboratory, blood 7 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved
transfusion bags, and other medical gear. They're also used in blood collection tubes as an adjuvant. Most anticoagulants (with the exception of heparin) stop blood from clotting by binding Calcium ions, which then inhibits the coagulation proteins from doing their job. 8 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved
4. Describe any obtained results. Explain all obtained results. Were these results expected or unexpected? Hint: You can use the “MEDIA” tab in the Lab Pad to revisit relevant images from the simulation (as shown in the example image below). For your entry make sure to include the following: Document the results from the simulation. Document whether the results were expected or unexpected, and briefly explain why. 9 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved

Blood samples from one patient revealed intracellular parasites, suggesting malaria, while those from another patient revealed irregularly shaped red blood cells, indicating sickle cell anemia. The third and last patient's vitals seem to be normal, but he has been diagnosed with hemophilia due to a mutation in a gene that renders the clotting protein ineffective. 10 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved
5. Discuss the conclusions and implications. How do your results relate back to the original purpose and your hypothesis? Were there any systematic sources of error that could have affected the results? What did you learn? For your entry make sure to include the following: Include a statement that briefly summarizes how the results of the simulation relate back to your original purpose and hypothesis. Include a statement that details any systematic sources of error you identified that could have affected the results. If the lab did not have any systematic sources of error, include a statement that acknowledges the lack of error present in the lab. Include a statement about what you learned from the simulation. This week in class, we focused on the cardiovascular system, paying special attention to the heart and blood. Through our efforts this week to define the roles of various blood cells, analyze complete blood counts with an automatic hematology analyzer, prepare peripheral blood smears, and identify cells using Giemsa stain, we were able to successfully diagnose three patients and meet the course objectives for the week. 11 Copyright Labster ApS 2021 All Rights Reserved
