Erythrocytes (RBC)
Leukocytes (WBC)
Thrombocytes (Platelets)
Hematopoiesis - ANSWER:How blood components are made
Bone marrow - ANSWER:Where stem cells are made
Blood formation site
Hemostatis - ANSWER:The process that stops bleeding

Intracellular - ANSWER:In our cells
Intravascular - ANSWER:Within our blood vessels
Interstitial - ANSWER:Fluid between our cells
Sodium (Na+) - ANSWER:Transmission of nerve impulses, muscle contractibility, and
acid base balance
