Blood and Circulatory system

Blood-Composition
3
Blood-composition
4
Plasma Straw coloured fluid 55% of blood volume
Cells suspended in plasma Helps transport of food, Carbon dioxide,waste and salts. 92% -plasma is water 8%-organic and inorganic substance
5
RBCs-Red Blood Cells Most abundant cells 99% of blood volume
Contains red colour pigment called haemoglobin Haemoglobin carries oxygen Produced in bone marrow, ribs etc 4-6 million RBCs per cubic millilitre No nucleus Life span-120 days
6
WBCs-White blood cells
Colourless-leucocytes 1% of blood volume Largest cells of blood Fight against infections Protects from Germs, bacteria
7
Associate with allergic reactions
Types of leucocytes Leucocytes Granulocytes Neutrophils 60-65% Phagocytic Eosinophils Associate with allergic reactions Basophils 0.5-1% Secrete histamine serotonins, heparin involved in inflammatory response Agranulocytes Lymphocytes 20-25% immune responses B lymphocytes T lymphocytes Monocytes
8
Platelets Small irregular bodies Thrombocyte 10 days No nucleus
Chemicals-clotting Prevents bleeding Produced in bone marrow 1.5-3 lakh platelets in each millilitre of blood
9
Regulates body temperature
Functions of blood Transportation Fights diseases Regulates body temperature
10
Blood Groups/Blood types
11
Human ABO blood groups and their compatibility
12
Rh-system 1-The Rh system consists of Rh-positive (Rh) and Rh-negative (Rh) groups. 2-These groups are identified on the basis of the presence of an antigen called Rh factor. 3- If in a person Rh factor is present, he is Rh-positive and if not, he is Rh-negative. 4-These two blood groups are also incompatible i.e. in blood transfusion an Rh-negative person should not be given Rh-positive.
13
Blood circulation
14
Components of Circulatory system
Lymph Blood Blood vessels Arteries Veins Capillaries Heart
15
Lymphatic system Lymph-clear yellowish, slightly alkaline, coagulable fluid, WBC Middleman between blood and tissues. Carries plasma proteins synthesized in liver to the blood.
