Physiology & Anatomy Ch 11 SmartBook The connective tissue that fills arteries and veins is called blood. List three types of formed elements of the blood. Platelets White blood cells Red blood cells White blood cells and platelets comprise about 1% of the blood volume. Put the events of erythropoiesis in order from beginning to end.
Each red blood cell is about 33% hemoglobin by volume. Red blood cell production increases when erythropoietin levels increase oxygen levels in blood decrease Which of the following statements represent accurate differences between red blood cells and white blood cells? White blood cells have nuclei while mature red blood cells do not. Some white blood cells are capable of leaving the blood vessels while red blood cells can not. A disease-causing agent is generally called a  pathogen WBCs may increase in number in the presence of pathogens What type of white blood cell is depicted in the micrograph? basophil Select the functions and/or actions of white blood cells. Defense against disease
Inflammation regulation Match the agranulocytes to their descriptions. Select the WBCs that are granulocytes. Neutrophils Eosinophils Basophils What type of white blood cell is depicted in the micrograph? Lymphocyte Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of neutrophils? They are agranulocytes. What is the primary function of the plasma protein called albumin? Helps to maintain the colloid osmotic pressure of the plasma therefore regulating water movement. Your blood cholesterol is measured as HDL and LDL. HDL and LDL have protein components called globulins.

Electrolytes play an important role in maintaining osmotic pressure and plasma pH. Rank the abundance of plasma proteins from most to least abundant. 1. Albumins 2. Globulins 3. Fibrinogen Which of the following is NOT a process of hemostasis? Vasodilation Electrolytes that are important in maintaining the osmotic pressure and pH of the plasma are bicarbonate or HCO3- ions and hydrogen ions The individual steps of hemostasis use positive feedback. Platelets contribute to blood vessel spasm and prevent blood loss when they release serotonin , which causes contraction of smooth muscles in the walls of blood vessels. Which process is the quickest response to a blood vessel injury that is causing blood loss? Vascular spasm A mass of platelets that reduce minor bleeding is also known as a platelet plug Hemostatic processes include blood vessel spasm blood clotting platelet plug formation The typical first step in platelet plug formation is vessel damage Which of the following is NOT a step in the formation of a platelet plug? Formation of a blood clot What is necessary to form plasmin? Plasminogen Tissue plasminogen activator
Place the steps of platelet plug formation in the correct order starting with the injury. Match the ABO blood type with the antibody present in its plasma. After the damaged vessel has been repaired, clots are broken down by plasmin which digest(s) the fibrin threads associated with the clot. Select all compatible blood transfusion combinations. Donor type AB / Recipient type AB Donor type B / Recipient type B Donor type A / Recipient type A Which of the following donor/recipient pairs would lead to agglutination? Donor Type B: Recipient Type O Match the ABO blood type with the antigen present on its red blood cell membrane.
Which of the following are characteristics of individuals with type AB blood? Blood doping can result in polycythemia Match the type of anemia with its corresponding description. A disease in which large numbers of leukocytes are released into the blood is  leukemia.
