KNOW WHAT GIVES THE RED BLOOD CELLS THEIR RED COLOR? KNOW WHAT a HEMATOMA IS? KNOW THE DEFINITION OF HYPOXEMIA. KNOW WHAT HORMONE IS SECRETED BY THE HEART THAT INCREASES SODIUM EXCRETION? KNOW WHAT CELLS PRODUDE PLATELETS? KNOW THE SOURCE OF HISTAMINE. KNOW WHAT RESULTS FROM THE HEREDITARY LACK OF INTRINSIC FACTOR?

Explanation / Answer

1) Thrombin is an enzyme that converts Fibrinogen to fibrin

2) Corticotropin-releasing hormone(CRH) is produced by parvocellular neuroendocrine cells within the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus and is released at the median eminence from neurosecretory terminals of these neurons.

3) Blood has three main functions involved in transport, protection and regulation.

Blood transports the following substances

Blood several roles in inflamation

Blood regulate:

5) The hematocrit blood test determines the percentage of red blood cells (RBC's) in the blood.

6) RBCs are red due to haemoglobin which contains iron. Red blood cells contain protein called hemoglobin.Hemoglobin protein is made up subunits called hemes, specificallythe hemes can bind iron molecules, and these iron molecules bind oxygen.

7) A hematoma is an abnormal collection of blood outside of a blood vessel. It occurs because the wall of a blood vessel wall, artery, vein, or capillary, has been damaged and blood has leaked into tissues because either disease or taruma including injury or surgery

8) Atrial natriuretic hormone (ANP) increases sodium excretion.

10) Platelet cells are produced in the large bonemarrowcells called megakaryocytes.

11) Histamine in the body is Secreted by granules in mast cells and in white blood cells (leukocytes) called basophils and eosinophils.
