RED BLOOD CELL (RBC)

ERYTHROCYTES

CARRY OXYGEN FROM LUNGS TO TISSUES

PLATELETS

THROMBOCYTES

FUNCTION IN CLOTTING BLOOD

CYTOPLASM CONTAINS LYSOSOMES AND OTHER MEMBRANE-BOUNDED ORANELLES THAT APPEAR AS CONSPICUOUS COLORED GRANULES IN STAINED BLOOD FILMS.

NEUTROPHILS

EOSINOPHILS

BASOPHILS

WHAT IS AN AGRANULOCYTE:

NAME THE 2 DIFFERENT TYPES:

CYTOPLASMIC GRANULES ARE ABSENT.

LYMPHOCYTES

MONOCYTES

A CLEAR EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX- FOUND ON A SLIDE- THE MATRIX IN WHICH THE CELLS AND OTHER ORGANELLES ARE SUSPENDED WITHIN.

CONTAINS: WATER, PROTEINS, NUTRIENTS, NITROGENOUS WASTES, HORMONES, AND GASES.

THE RESISTANCE OF A FLUID TO FLOW, RESULTING FROM THE COHESION OF ITS PARTICLES.

IMPORTANT IN CIRCULATORY FUNCTION BECAUSE IT PARTIALLY GOVERNS THE FLOW OF BLOOD THROUGH VESSELS.

RBC DEFICIENCY REDUCES VISCOSITY.

DETERMINED BY THE HEREDITARY PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ANTIGENS A AND B ON YOUR RBCs.

Rh+

Rh- IF THE D ANTIGEN IS NOT PRESENT

NEUTROPHIL

3-5 LOBES IN S- OR C-SHAPED ARRAY

INCREASES IN BACTERIAL INFECTIONS

PHAGOCYTIZES BACTERIA

RELEASES ANTIMICROBIAL CHEMICALS

EOSINOPHIL

NUCLEUS USUALLY HAS TWO LARGE LOBES CONNECTED BY THIN STRAND

INCREASES IN PARASITIC INFECTIONS, ALLERGIES

*PHAGOCYTIZE ANTIGEN-ANTIBODY COMPLEXES, ALLERGENS, AND INFLAMMATORY CHEMICALS.

*RELEASES ENZYMES TO DESTROY PARASITIC WORMS.

BASOPHIL

RAREST WBC

RELATIVELY STABLE

INCREASES IN SINUSITIS, AND POLYCYTHEMIA

*SECRETE HISTAMINE-INCREASE BLOOD FLOW

*SECRETE HEPARIN(ANTICOAGULANT)PREVENTS CLOT

LYMPHOCYTE

INCREASES IN DIVERSE INFECTIONS AND IMMUNE RESPONSES.

DESTROY CANCER CELLS(T&B CELLS)

SECRETES ANTIBODIES

SERVE IN IMMUNE MEMORY

MONOCYTE

KIDNEY-SHAPED

INCREASES IN VIRAL INFECTIONS AND INFLAMMATION

DIFFERENTIATE INTO MACROPHAGES(LARGE PHAGOCYTIC CELLS OF THE TISSUES)

PHAGOCYTIZE PATHOGENS, DEAD NEUTROPHILS AND OTHER DEAD  CELLS

"PRESENT" ANTIGENS TO ACT. other Imm. syst cells
