In adults, the stem cells responsible for the production of red and white blood cells originate primarily in the

Red Bone Marrow

What is a benefit of a vascular spasm at the onset of hemostasis?

Reduction in blood loss

Which disease is characterized by defective hemoglobin that results from a mutation affecting the amino acid sequence of one pair of the globular proteins of the hemoglobin molecule resulting in stiff, markedly curved red blood cells?

Agglutinins

are antibodies that will attack surface antigens on RBCs of a different blood type.

The fluid left after the clotting proteins are removed is known as

serum

Formation of red blood cells is called

Erythropoeisis

The percentage of whole blood volume occupied by formed elements is called

Hematocrit

Inactive Proenzymes

In the adult, the only site of red blood cell production, and the primary site of white blood cell formation, is the

Red Bone Marrow

pH of blood is

Slightly alkaline
