Final Exam part 1

increased erythropoiesis

a constriction of the arteries that carry blood to the kidneys would result in

calcitriol

a hormone that helps to regulate the calcium ion concentration of the blood is

thymosin

a hormone that helps to regulate the immune system is

aldosterone

basophils

although they are known as mast cells in the tissues, they circulate as

hormones

are chemical messengers that are released in one tissue and transported in the bloodstream to alter the activities of specific cells in other tissues.

reticulocytes

are immature erythrocytes that are sometimes found in peripheral blood samples

bill's plasma contains b agglutinins since he does not have type b blood

bill wants to determine his blood type, so he takes a few drops of blood from a puncture wound in his finger and mixes it with various antisera. his blood cells agglutinate when mixes with the anti- a sera but not with anti-b or anti-d sera. this means

bill could donate blood to an individual with type 0 negative blood

bill wants to determine his blood type, so he takes a few drops of blood from a puncture wound in his finger and mixes it with various antisera. his blood cells aggulutinate when mixed with the anti-d sera but not with the anti a or anti b sera. this means
