2.  Circulatory System relates to: o Skeletal system  Where blood cells are produced o Respiratory System  carries oxygen/carbon dioxide to the body o Lymphatic System  lymph and foreign invader defenders travel through the blood system  Functions of blood o Fluid connective tissue o Transport dissolved gasses, nutrients, hormones, and metabolic wastes o Regulates pH and ion composition o Restricts fluid loss at injury sites o Defense against toxins/pathogens

3.  46-63% Plasma  37-54% Formed Elements o 3 components : 1.Red Blood Cells, RBC’s or erythrocytes Most abundant Transport oxygen/carbon dioxide 2.White Blood Cells, WBC’c or leukocytes Involved in body’s defense mechanisms 3.Platelets Small packets of cytoplasm that contain enzymes and other substances for clotting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-sKZWqsUpw

4.  Plasma composition: o 92% water o 7% Plasma Proteins o 1% other solutes

6.  3 Primary types: 1. Albumins Regulate osmotic pressure of plasma Transport fatty acids, hormones 2. Globulins Antibodies that attack foreign proteins and pathogens 3. Fibrinogens Blood clotting if platelets don’t clot properly

7.  99.9% Erythrocytes  Contain the red pigment hemoglobin  Single blood drop = 260 million RBC’s  Structure: o Biconcave disc Enables RBC’s to form smooth stacks that flow through narrow openings Enables bending/flexing o During differentiation, RBC’s loose most organelles  short lifespan (<120 days)

11.  Hemoglobin o Bloods cells with attached oxygen  bright red o binds and transports oxygen/carbon dioxide to tissues throughout the body o Anemia: condition where the Hemoglobin levels are low Interferes with oxygen delivery Symptoms: weak, lethargic, confused http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkC5Hf- AKwo&NR=1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkC5Hf- AKwo&NR=1

12.  Blood Doping: involves harvesting an athlete's own blood before a competition or finding a matching blood donor o blood is processed to create a concentration of red blood cells, then frozen until needed for transfusion back into the athlete shortly before the event o the extra red blood cells will deliver more oxygen and other essential elements to the athlete's muscle tissues, which means more stamina and endurance

13.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4qkwW-Fl3E http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4qkwW-Fl3E  A classification determined by presence/absence of antigens o Substances that trigger an immune response o Attached to cell membranes of RBC’s  RBC’s of individual will have either 1.

14.  Type A o Antigen A o 40%  Type B o Antigen B o 10%  Type AB o Antigens A and B o 4%  Type O o Neither antigens o 46%

15.  Rh factor o Surface antigen o Rh+ Presences of Rh antigen 85% o Rh- Absence of Rh antigen 15% o Example: O-  No antigens present AB+  A, B, and Rh antigens present

16.  Day 2  Blood typing lab

17.  Why do we need to be aware of blood types? o Agglutinins: cells in plasma that attack antigens on “misplaced” RBC’s When agglutinins attack the foreign RBC’s clump together = agglutination o If you are Type A  your plasma carries anti-B (antibodies B) which will attack Type B surface antigens o Universal Recipient: AB+ o Universal Donor: O-

21.  Inherited through genes on chromosome 9  Determined by the inheritance of 1 of 3 alleles (A, B, or O) from each parent. The possible outcomes are shown below:alleles  Both A and B alleles are dominant over O. The A and B alleles are codominant. Therefore, if an A is inherited from one parent and a B from the other, the phenotype will be AB. Parent Alleles ABO AAA (A) AB (AB) AO (A) BAB (AB) BB (B) BO (B) OAO (A) BO (B) OO (O)

23.  Compared to RBC’s o Have a nuclei, organelles o Lack hemoglobin  Function o Defend against invasion by pathogens o Remove toxins, wastes, abnormal/damaged cells

24.  Use bloodstream to travel from organ to organ o Detect chemical signals within the blood to seek out the damaged area Can move out of bloodstream Some can do phagocytosis: the ability to engulf large particles  Types of Leukocytes o Neutrophils o Eosinophils o Basophils o Monocytes o Lymphocytes

25.  Neutrophils o 50-76% of WBC’s o The first WBC to arrive at injury site o Specialize in attacking and engulfing bacteria that has been marked  Eosinophils o Red in color o 2-4% of WBC’s o Phagocytize marked bacteria, parasites, or cellular debris  Basophils o <1% of WBC’s o Trigger dilation of blood vessels to avoid clotting

26.  Monocytes o 2-8% of WBC’s o Aggressive phagocytes o Engulfing items larger than themselves o Release chemicals to attract other neutrophils and monocytes  Lymphocytes o 20-30% of WBC’s o 3 Classes: 1.T Cells 2.B Cells 3.NK Cells

28.  Leukopenia  Leukopenia: abnormally low #’s of leukocytes  Leukocytosis  Leukocytosis: abnormally high #’s of leukocytes o Leukemia: type of Leukocytosis, many kinds Leukocytes fight off normal, healthy cells within the body

29.  Platelets  Platelets: thrombocytes o Thrombocytopenia: abnormally low platelet count Cause: excessive bleeding o Thrombocytosis: exceedingly high platelet count Infection, inflammation, cancer  Functions o Release enzymes at appropriate times to initiate clotting control o Formation of temporary patch in walls of damaged vessels

31.  Day 4

32.  Blood pumped through the body is involved in 2 main circuits: 1. Pulmonary Carries blood to and from the gas exchange surfaces of the lungs 2. Systemic Transports blood to and from the rest of the body  Both circuits start and end at the heart o Circuits made up of: Arteries Veins Capillaries

55.  Electrocardiogram  Electrocardiogram: recording of the electrical events of your heart  Features: o P Wave: depolarization of the atria (contract) o QRS Complex: ventricles depolarize(contract) and atria repolarize(relax) R Wave: Ventricles contract (contraction held due to ventricles being larger than atria) o T Wave: ventricle repolarization (relax)

57.  The repetitive pumping process that begins with cardiac muscle contraction and ends with the beginning of the next o 2 phases: Systole Systole: contraction of the heart chambers— pushing blood out of heart Diastole Diastole: Relaxation of the heart chambers---blood filling heart chambers Used in blood pressure readings: Systolic/Diastolic Ex: 120/80 The amount of pressure on your vascular tissue during systole and diastole

58.  Take Blood Pressure o Average 120/80 Abnormally Low #’s: 80/50 or lower = body is not getting enough blood Hypotension Hypotension Abnormally High #’s: 140/100 or higher = heart is working too hard to get blood to body Hypertension Hypertension
