Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Erythrocytes: Red Blood Cells • 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 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Leukocytes: White Blood Cells there are many different types and all contain a big nucleus. the two main ones are the lymphocytes and the macrophages. macrophages ‘eat’ and digest microorganisms . some lymphocytes fight disease by making antibodies to destroy invaders by dissolving them. other lymphocytes make antitoxins to break down poisons. Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Leukocytes: White Blood Cells • WBC fight infection – • • • Less abundant Large cells Some live for months – • • Attack foreign substances Most just a few days Several types ALL contain nuclei Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Platelets 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. Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Platelets • • • • • 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 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Blood Clotting Break in Capillary Wall Clumping of Platelets Clot Forms Blood vessels injured. Platelets clump at the site and release thromboplastin. Thromboplastin converts prothrombin into thrombin.. Thrombin converts fibrinogen into fibrin, which causes a clot. The clot prevents further loss of blood..
