2 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Blood Circulation  Powered by the pumping action of the heart  Functions of blood  Carries respiratory gases, nutrients, and hormones  Helps body regulate temperature  Blood volume  Males: 5 – 6 liters  Females: 4 – 5 liters

3 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Overview: Composition of Blood  Contains cellular and liquid components  A specialized connective tissue  Blood cells – formed elements  Plasma – fluid portion and fibrinogen  Hematocrit – measure of % RBC  Males: 47% ± 5%  Females: 42% ± 5%

4 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Overview: Composition of Blood Figure 17.1

5 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Blood Plasma  Straw-colored, sticky fluid portion of blood  Approximately 90% water  Contains  Ions – Na + and Cl -  Nutrients – Sugars, amino acids, lipids, wastes, and proteins  Three main proteins  Albumin, globulins, and fibrinogen

6 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Formed Elements  Blood cells  Erythrocytes, leukocytes, and platelets  Staining of blood cells  Acidic dye – eosin – stains pink  Basic dye – methylene blue – stains blue and purple

7 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Figure 17.2b

8 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Erythrocytes – Red Blood Cells (RBCs)  Oxygen-transporting cells – 7.5 µm in diameter (diameter of capillary 8 – 10mm)  Most numerous of the formed elements  Females: 4.3 – 5.2 million cells/cubic millimeter  Males: 5.2 – 5.8 million cells/cubic millimeter  Have no organelles or nuclei

9 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Erythrocytes – Red Blood Cells (RBCs)  Hemoglobin – oxygen-carrying protein  Biconcave shape – 30% more surface area  Why is this important?  Live 100 – 120 days  Originate in the bone marrow

10 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings An Erythrocyte Figure 17.3

11 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Leukocytes – White Blood Cells (WBCs)  4,800 – 11,000/cubic millimeter  Protect the body from infectious microorganisms  Function outside the bloodstream in loose connective tissue  Diapedesis – circulating leukocytes leave the capillaries

12 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Leukocytes – White Blood Cells (WBCs)  Two types of leukocytes  Granulocytes  Agranulocytes  Never Let Monkeys Eat Bananas

13 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Relative Percentages of the Different Types of Leukocytes Figure 17.5

14 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Granulocytes  Neutrophils – most numerous WBC  Phagocytize and destroy bacteria  Nucleus – has two to six lobes  Granules pick up acidic and basic stains Figure 17.4a

15 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Eosinophils – compose 1 – 4% of all WBCs  Play roles in  Ending allergic reactions, parasitic infections Figure 17.4b

16 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Granulocytes  Basophils – about 0.5% of all leukocytes  Nucleus – usually two lobes  Granules secrete histamines  Function in inflammation mediation  Similar in function to mast cells Figure 17.4c

17 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Agranulocytes  Lymphocytes – compose 20 – 45% of WBCs  The most important cells of the immune system  Nucleus – stains dark purple  Effective in fighting infectious organisms  Act against a specific foreign molecule (antigen) Figure 17.4d

18 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Agranulocytes  Two main classes of lymphocyte  T cells – attack foreign cells directly  B cells – multiply to become plasma cells  Secrete antibodies

19 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Agranulocytes  Monocytes – compose 4–8% of WBCs  The largest leukocytes  Nucleus – kidney shaped  Transform into macrophages  Phagocytic cells Figure 17.4e

20 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Platelets  Cell fragments  Break off from megakaryocytes  Function in clotting of blood

21 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Summary of Formed Elements Table 17.1

22 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Blood Cell Formation  Hematopoiesis – process by which blood cells are formed  100 billion new blood cells formed each day

23 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Bone Marrow as the Site of Hematopoiesis  Bone marrow – located within all bones  Red marrow – actively generates new blood cells  Contains immature erythrocytes  Remains in epiphyses, girdles, and axial skeleton

24 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Bone Marrow as the Site of Hematopoiesis  Yellow marrow – dormant  Contains many fat cells  Located in the long bones of adults  Tissue framework for red marrow  Reticular connective tissue

25 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Cell Lines in Blood Cell Formation  All blood cells originate in bone marrow  All originate from one cell type  Blood stem cell (pluripotential hematopoeitic stem cell)  Lymphoid stem cells  Give rise to lymphocytes  Myeloid stem cells  Give rise to all other blood cells

26 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Cell Lines in Blood Cell Formation  Genesis of erythrocytes  Committed cells are proerythroblasts  Remain in the reticulocyte stage for 1–2 days in circulation  Make up about 1–2% of all erythrocytes

27 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Cell Lines in Blood Cell Formation  Formation of leukocytes  Granulocytes form from myeloblasts  Monoblasts enlarge and form monocytes  Platelet-forming cells from megakaryoblasts  Break apart into platelets

28 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Stages of Differentiation of Blood Cells Figure 17.8

29 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Disorders of the Blood  Disorders of erythrocytes  Polycythemia  Abnormal excess of erythrocytes  Anemia  Erythrocyte levels or hemoglobin concentrations are low

30 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Disorders of the Blood  Disorders of erythrocytes (continued)  Sickle cell disease  Inherited condition  Results from a defective hemoglobin molecule  Erythrocytes distort into a sickle shape  Hemachromatosis  Inherited  Abnormal excess of iron

31 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Disorders of the Blood  Disorders of leukocytes  Leukemia – a form of cancer  Classified as lymphoblastic or myeloblastic  Disorders of platelets  Thrombocytopenia  Abnormally low concentration of platelets

32 Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Blood Throughout Life  First blood cells develop with the earliest blood vessels  Mesenchyme cells cluster into blood islands  Late in the second month  Liver and spleen take over blood formation  Bone marrow becomes major hematopoietic organ at month 7
