Function of Blood • Deliver O2 • Remove metabolic wastes • Maintain temperature, pH, and fluid volume • Protection from blood loss- platelets • Prevent infection- antibodies and WBC • Transport hormones
The Blood plasma 55% 45% formed elements
Blood Plasma Components- 55% 90% Water 8% Solutes: • Proteins Albumin (60 %) Alpha and Beta Globulins Gamma Globulins fibrinogens • Gas • Electrolytes
Blood Plasma Components • Organic Nutrients Carbohydrates Amino Acids Lipids Vitamins • Hormones • Metabolic waste CO2 Urea
Formed Elements of the Blood- 45% • Erythrocytes (red blood cells) • Leukocytes (white blood cells) • Thrombocytes (platelets)
Erythrocyte7.5m in dia ·Anucleate- so can't reproduce; however, repro in red bone marrow ·Hematopoiesis- production of RBC ·Function- transport respiratory gases ·Hemoglobin- quaternary structure, 2 chains and 2 chains ·Lack mitochondria. Why? ·1 RBC contains 250 million hemoglobin molecules ·Men- 5 million cells/mm3 ·Women- 4.5 million cells/mm3 ·Life span 100-120 days and then destroyed in spleen (RBC graveyard)
RBC Diseases Anemia- when blood has low O2 carrying capacity; insufficient RBC or iron deficiency. Factors that can cause anemia- exercise, B12 deficiency
RBC Diseases Sickle-cell anemia- • HbS results from a change in just one of the 287 amino acids in the chain in the globin molecule. • Found in 1 out of 400 African Americans. • Homozygous for sickle-cell is deadly, but in malaria infested countries, the heterozygous condition is beneficial.
Genetics of Sickle Cell Anemia Genetics of Sickle Cell Anemia
RBC Diseases • Polycythemia- excess of erythrocytes, viscosity of blood; 8-11 million cells/mm3 Usually caused by cancer; however, naturally occurs at high elevations • Blood doping- in athletesremove blood 2 days before event and then replace it- banned by Olympics.
Types of Leukocytes 4,000-11,000 cells/mm 3 Never let monkeys eat bananas Granulocytes Neutrophils- 40-70% Eosinophils- 1-4% Basophils- <1% Agranulocytes Monocytes- 4-8% Lymphocytes- 20-45%
Lymphocyte Eosinophil Basophil platelet Neutrophil Monocyte
WBC Diseases Lukemia- too high WBC Leukocytosis- suppresses normal bone marrow function; abnormally high WBC Leukopenia- too few WBC; commonly induced by drugs, and anticancer agents Mononucleosis- highly contagious viral disease caused by Epstein-Barr virus; excessive # of agranulocytes; fatigue, sore throat, recover in a few weeks
Platelet Plug Clotting Factors Hemostasis- stoppage of bleeding Platelets: 250,000-500,000 cells/mm3 Tissue Damage
Hemostasis: • Vessel injury 2. Vascular spasm 3. Platelet plug formation 4. Coagulation
Clotting Factors thromboplastin Prothrombin Thrombin Fibrinogen Fibrin Hemostasis(+ feedback) Traps RBC & platelets Platelets release thromboplastin

Blood Types Type A Type B Type AB Type O
Blood Typing Blood type is based on the presence of 2 major antigens in RBC membranes-- A and B Blood type Antigen Antibody A A anti-B B B anti-A A & B AB no anti body Neither A or B O anti-A and anti-B Antigen- protein on the surface of a RBC membrane Antibody- proteins made by lymphocytes in plasma which are made in response to the presence of antigens. They attack foreign antigens, which result in clumping (agglutination)
