1. Chapter 16 Circulation Section 2 Blood and Lymph

2. Blood is made up of four components:
What makes up blood?
What are the components of blood?
Blood is made up of four components:
Plasma
Red blood cells
White blood cells
Platelets
Plasma is the liquid part of the blood

3. What determines the type of blood that a person can receive in a transfusion?
Marker molecules on your red blood cells determine your blood type and the type of blood that you can safely receive in transfusions.

4. What are the structures and function of the lymphatic system?
A network of vein-like vessels that returns the fluid (lymph) to the bloodstream.
The structures are the lymph nodes

5. Plasma The liquid part of the blood 90% of plasma is water
10% of plasma is dissolved materials such as nutrients or glucose
Plasma is yellow

6. Red Blood Cell
Take up oxygen in the lungs and deliver it to cells everywhere in the body
They are produce only in the red bone marrow
They do not undergo mitosis and cannot reproduce.

7. Hemoglobin
An iron containing protein that bonds chemically with oxygen molecules
Remember DNA contained the code to produce proteins

8. White Blood Cell Are also produced in the red bone marrow
They are the body’s disease fighters
They capture invaders like bacteria by engulfing them and digesting them
They lose their lives in the battle against disease and are also known as puss

9. Platelet
Platelets are cell fragments that play an important part in forming blood clots
Because of their irregular shapes they are able to latch together and form clots

10. Lymphatic System
A network of vein-like vessels that returns the fluid (lymph) to the bloodstream

11. Lymph Fluid inside the lymphatic system
It consists of water and dissolved materials such as glucose
I also contains white blood cells that have left the capillaries

12. Lymph Node
Small knobs of tissue that filter lymph, trapping bacteria and other disease-causing microorganisms in the fluid
When the body is fighting an infection, the lymph nodes become enlarged and can hurt

13. Blood Transfusion
The transfer of blood from one person to another

14. Rh Factor Another protein in red blood cells
It can cause a clumping reaction in blood

15. Marker Molecules
Blood types such as A, B, AB, and O are determined by marker molecules that are on red blood cells
These marker molecules help to identify the types of cells and their function

16. Why do vampires drink blood. Are they parasites
Why do vampires drink blood? Are they parasites? What might their digestive system look like?
Draw a diagram of a vampires digestive system and determine if the vampire need type A blood, type B blood, type AB blood or type O blood.
