Ch 18 Blood Worksheet

Hematocrit blood value can indicate

blood doping

Blood types A, B, AB, and O form the ______ blood group.

ABO

Your ABO blood type is determined by the presence or absence of ____________ on your RBCs.

ANTIGNES

________ occurs when blood is mismatched during a transfusion.

Agglutination

Antibodies ____________ to antigens and mark them for destruction.

BIND

Match the type of granulocyte in Column A with the description in Column B.

Basophil: Contain blue or purple cytoplasmic granules Neutrophil: Contain lavender cytoplasmic granules Eosinophil: Contain orange or red cytoplasmic granules

what white blood cell(s) is/are classified as an agranulocyte?

Lymphocyte and Monocyte

what white blood cell(s) is/are classified as a granulocyte?

Neutrophil, Basophil, Eosinophil

Hematocrit is a measurement of the percentage of blood volume composed of which formed element?

RBC's

Which of the following is/are classified as a formed element of blood?

RBC, WBC, and platelets

These antibodies react with ____________ RBC antigens.

foreign

What are the components of the circulatory system?

heart, blood vessels, blood

These complexes ____________ the antigens until immune cells can break them down.

immobilize

After binding, the antigens are ____________ together.

stuck

What determines a persons blood types

the presence of antigens on the RBCs

In addition to the ABO and Rh groups, there are at least 100 other known blood groups, but they rarely cause transfusion reactions.

true

T or F: hemolysis refers to the breakdown of RBCs

true

breakdown of hemoglobin

- Old RBC's rupture, releasing hemoglobin. - Hemoglobin is ingested by macrophages - Hemoglobin is broken down into a heme and globin - the globin group is broken down into amino acids that are metabolized or used to build more proteins - the heme is broken down into iron and biliverdin - biliverdin is converted to free bilirubin - iron is transported by transferrin in the blood to various tissues such as the liver or spleen for storage or to red bone marrow to make new hemoglobin (by erythropoiesis) - free bilirubin is transported in the blood by albumin and carried to the liver. - liver cells make conjugated bilirubin which is excreted as part of the bile into the small intestine. - intestinal bacteria convert bilirubin into bilirubin derivatives which contribute to the brown color of feces - Some bilirubin derivatives are absorbed in the blood and are excreted from the kidneys into the urine

Choose the correct statement(s) regarding the composition of plasma. Check all that apply.

1) Water represents 92% by weight.2) Albumin is 60% of the total protein portion.3) The most abundant nitrogenous waste is urea. Plasma is a complex mixture of water, proteins, nutrients, electrolytes, nitrogenous wastes, hormones, and gases. By weight, water represents 92%. Protein is the most abundant plasma solute by weight, totaling 6 to 9 g/dL. Albumin represents 60% of the total protein.

A hematocrit of ____% would be normal

45% Men: 42%-52% Women: 37%-48%

Differential WBC

A differential determines the relative amounts of each of the five types of WBC's which is more diagnostically valuable than just the total number of WBC's alone. - agranulocytes are the lymphocytes and monocytes - the granulocytes are the neutrophils eosinophils and basophils. -

One method of destruction is called ____________ , in which each antibody binds two or more antigens.

agglutination

Hemoglobin Determination can indicate

anemia

Each antigen will have a different ____________ complex on the surface of the RBC.

carbohydrate

Blood typing can determine

compatibility for blood transfusions

Repetition of this process produces antigen antibody ____________ .

complexes

WBC smallest to greatest

neutrophils lymphocytes monocytes eosinophils basophils

The antibodies related to the ABO blood group are located

on the RBC membranes

Additionally, ____________ will contain antibodies.

plasma
