24. Veins: Blood Toward the Heart Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings –Carries blood that contains waste and CO 2 Exception pulmonary vein –Blood not under much pressure –Valves to prevent much gravity pull Venules: larger than capillaries

26. Artery vs. Vein Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

27. Composition of Blood Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Plasma (Fluid) makes up 55% of the blood volume. The Solids (Cells) make up 45% of the blood volume.

28. Blood Plasma Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings 97% Water Other 3% -Antibodies and Proteins - Nutrients and Wastes

29. Blood Solids Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Red Blood Cells -Carry oxygen -Contain Hemoglobin White Blood Cells -Attack bacteria & other invaders Platelets -Control the blood clotting process

30. Blood Plasma Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Body contains 4-6 L Consists of –Water –Red Blood Cells –Plasma –White blood cells and platelets

31. Blood Plasma Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings A straw- coloured liquid that carries the cells and the platelets which help blood clot. carbon dioxide glucose amino acids proteins minerals vitamins hormones waste materials like urea. It also contains useful things like;

35. Your Blood: Fluid Transport Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Liquid Portion Carries Blood cells –Erythrocytes (RBC - red blood cells) –Leucocytes (WBC - white blood cells) Platelets (non cellular particles) Proteins –Enzymes –Hormones – Endocrine System Nutrients - Digestive System Gases - Respiratory System Inorganic salts a Tissue 50% water 4% dissolved substances

36. Oxygen in the Blood Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Hemoglobin, iron containing molecule Loosely picks up oxygen in the lungs Loses oxygen in areas low in oxygen (diffuses)

37. Carbon Dioxide in the Blood Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Hemoglobin carries CO 2 also CO 2 is a waste product of cellular work 70% of CO 2 combines with water The rest travels to the lungs

38. The Composition of Blood Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings 50% Water 45% Erythrocytes 4% Plasma with Substances 1% Leukocytes + Platelets

39. Erythrocytes: Red Blood Cells Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings contain hemoglobin, a molecule specially designed to hold oxygen and carry it to cells that need it. can change shape to an amazing extent, without breaking, as it squeezes single file through the capillaries. a biconcave disc that is round and flat without a nucleus

40. Erythrocytes: Red Blood Cells Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Transporters of –Oxygen –Carbon Dioxide RBC –Lack a nucleus –Contain hemoglobin –Disk-shaped RBC are produced in red bone marrow of –ribs, –humerus, –femur, –sternum, and other long bones Lives for 120 days Old RBC are destroyed in liver and spleen

41. Leukocytes: White Blood Cells Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings there are many different types and all contain a big nucleus. the two main ones are the lymphocytes and the macrophages. some lymphocytes fight disease by making antibodies to destroy invaders by dissolving them. other lymphocytes make antitoxins to break down poisons. macrophages ‘eat’ and digest micro- organisms.

42. Leukocytes: White Blood Cells Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings WBC fight infection –Attack foreign substances Less abundant Large cells Some live for months –Most just a few days Several types ALL contain nuclei

43. Platelets Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Platelets are bits of cell broken off larger cells. Platelets produce tiny fibrinogen fibres to form a net. This net traps other blood cells to form a blood clot.

44. Platelets Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings PLATELETS are for CLOTTING blood Cell fragments Produced in bone marrow Short life span (1 week) Fibrin (sticky network of protein fibers) –Form a web trapping blood cells

45. Blood Clotting Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Break in Capillary Wall Blood vessels injured. Clumping of Platelets Platelets clump at the site and release thromboplastin. Thromboplastin converts prothrombin into thrombin.. Clot Forms Thrombin converts fibrinogen into fibrin, which causes a clot. The clot prevents further loss of blood..

46. Blood Pressure Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Blood against the blood vessel’s walls –The systolic pressure refers to the pressure recorded while the ventricles pump the blood. –The diastolic pressure refers to the pressure recorded as the ventricles fill with blood. A normal blood pressure is 120/80

49. Mixing Blood Types Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Plasma contains proteins that correspond to the shape of the different antigens If you mix one type with the wrong one, you get CLUMPING Type O is the universal donor Type AB is the universal acceptor
