Blood & Lymph Notes Blood Composition: plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets; produced by the red bone marrow. Plasma: liquid part; 90% water, 10% nutrients (glucose, fat, vitamins, minerals), waste: “CO 2, water vapor”, proteins, chemical messengers.

Red Blood Cells: carries oxygen to body cells; contains hemoglobin (iron protein); lifespan 4 months; if blood bright red, oxygen present, if blood dark red/brown, no oxygen present

Blood & Lymph Notes White Blood Cells: disease fighting cells; lifespan months-years; specialized cells Example: –Cells: alarm system (T-cells & B-cells) –Cells produce chemicals (antibodies) to fight invasion –Cells that attack the invaders Immune System (WBC’s) Platelets: clot blood; produces fibrin protein

White Blood Cells (T cells, B cells): disease fighting cells red = red blood cells orange = T cells green = platelets helper T cell → ← B cell

Blood & Lymph Notes Blood Types: A, B, AB, O; three allele types: A, B, O Universal Receiver: AB Universal Donor: O

Transfusion: transfer of blood from one organism to another organism; if blood clumps, clogs capillaries, results in death

Blood & Lymph Notes Blood Type: surface molecules found on red blood cells Rh Factor: also surface molecules found on red blood cells –If Rh +, have Rh factor –If RH -, don’t have RH factor –If Rh- but have received RH+ blood, leads to clumping of blood and death

Rh Factor

Blood & Lymph Notes Lymphatic (Filtering) System: cleans and returns fluid to Circulatory System Lymph: contains water, glucose, white blood cells Lymph Nodes: traps invaders microorganisms (bacteria); node – “filter”

Lymphatic System
