3. © 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning Blood Composition Plasma Erythrocytes or red blood cells Leukocytes or white blood cells Thrombocytes or platelets

4. © 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning Blood Plasma Straw colored Comprises about 55% of the blood volume Water –92% of the total volume of plasma Plasma proteins –Fibrinogen –Albumin –Globulin

5. © 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning Blood Plasma Nutrients Electrolytes Hormones, vitamins, and enzymes Metabolic waste products

6. © 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning Red Blood Cells (RBCs) Hematopoiesis is the formation of all blood cells Occurs in the red bone marrow Certain lymphatic tissue produces some white blood cells Develop from stem cells

7. © 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning Erythropoiesis The manufacture of red blood cells (RBCs) RBCs live about 120 days Process of development and breakdown Normal ranges

8. © 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning Hemoglobin Erythrocytes contain a red pigment called hemoglobin Made of protein molecule called globin and an iron compound called heme Function of RBCs Normal ranges Hemolysis

9. © 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning White Blood Cells (WBCs) Called leukocytes Natural defense against injury and disease Types of leukocytes –Granulocytes –Agranulocytes Diapedesis Normal ranges

10. © 2009 Delmar, Cengage Learning Types of WBCs – Granulocytes Made from cells called myeloblasts Neutrophils Eosinophils Basophils
