Describe why the left side of the heart is thicker than the right
side?
because it must pump blood to the entire body while the right
ventricle needs only to deliver blood to the lungs and back
Plasma composition
metabolic wastes, nutrients, respiratory gases, electrolytes, and
hormones
Albumins:
-Contribute to viscosity and osmolarity
-influence blood pressure, flow, and fluid balance
Globulins:
-Provide immune system functions
-Fibrinogen:
-Precursor of fibrin threads that help form blood clots
,Buffy coat composition
leukocytes and platelets
Formed elements composition
Erythrocytes:
hemoglobulin, biconcave disks that lack nuclei and organelles
Platelets: fragments of marrow cells- megakaryocyte
Leukocytes: white blood cells (WBCs)
---granulocytes:
Neutrophils, Eosinophils, Basophils
---Agranulocytes:
Lymphocytes, Monocytes
Identify and describe the main functions of the blood.
Transport:
O2, CO2, nutrients, wastes, hormones, and stem cells
Protection:
Inflammation, limit spread of infection, destroy microorganisms
and cancer cells, neutralize toxins, and initiate clotting
, Regulation:
Fluid balance, stabilizes pH of ECF, and temperature control
Define and describe the importance of a CBC Vs Hematocrit
Complete Blood Count(CBC): yields a highly informative
profile of data on multiple blood values, evaluate your overall
health and detect a wide range of disorders
Hematocrit: Percentage of whole blood volume composed of
RBCs
Be able to label and identify the heart chambers
-left atrium and right atrium (upper chambers):
collect blood from the major veins of the body and deliver it to
the ventricles in a controlled manner
-the left ventricle and right ventricle(lower chambers):
pump blood through the pulmonary and systemic circuits
Be able to label and identify the heart valves.
