For this journey, you will be miniaturized and injected into the external iliac artery and will be guided by a fluorescent monitor into the bone marrow of the iliac bone. You will observe and report events of blood cell formation, also called _______, seen there, and then move out of the bone into the circulation to initiate and observe the process of blood clotting, also called ________. Once in the bone marrow, you watch as several large dark- nucleated stem cells, or ______, begin to divide and produce daughter cells. To your right, the daughter cells eventually formed have tiny cytoplasmic granules and very peculiarly shaped nuclei that look like small masses of nuclear material connected by thin strands of nucleoplasm. You have just witnessed the formation of a type of white blood cell called the ________. You describe its appearance and make a mental note to try to observe it activity later. Meanwhile you can tentatively report that this cell type functions as a _______ to protect the body. As another site, daughter cells arising from the division of a stem cell are difficult to identify initially. As you continue to observe the cells, you see that they, in turn, divide. Eventually some of their daughter cells eject their nuclei and flatten out to assume a disk shape. You assume that the kidneys must have released ________, because those cells are ________. That dark material filling their interior must be _______, because those cells function to transport _______ in the blood.
