Bio 257 Day 35 Today’s topics: Ch 11 Blood Ch 13 Blood vessels Circulatory System CV System blood blood vessels heart Lymphatic System Lymphatic organs Lymph Lymphatic vessels Blood • Functions: – Transports = O2,CO2, nutrients, hormones, wastes – Regulates = pH, body temp., osmolality, ions – Protects = against blood loss, foreign microbes & toxins Blood • Characteristics: - more viscous than water – pH 7.35-7.45 – 5-6 liters – divided into 2 components or portions Blood • 2 Components: 1.Formed elements = cells & cell fragments ( 45%) 2. non-formed elements = non-cellular, plasma (55%) Red Blood Cells An important measurement involving RBCs is the hematocrit. The hematocrit is the ratio of blood cells to plasma (ie packed red blood cells). It’s reflective of the body’s O2 carrying capacity. What’s the hematocrit in the sample below? Blood • Blood A)is a type of epithelial tissue. B)consists of formed elements only. C)transports waste products to cells. D)makes up over 50% of the body's weight. E)has a total volume of approximately 5 liters. Plasma • Characteristics: 1. straw-colored 2. 91.5 % water & 8.5 % dissolved solutes (including CO2) 3. Some solutes are plasma proteins Plasma • 3 types Plasma Proteins: 1. albumin 2. globulins 3. fibrinogen Plasma Proteins • Albumin: 1. Most abundant 2. Synthesized by liver 3. Function: maintains blood’s osmotic pressure (water movement between tissue & blood) to maintain blood volume Plasma • The major component of plasma is A)ions. B)proteins. C)water. D)gases. E)nutrients. Plasma Proteins • Globulins: 1. produced by liver 2. 3 types (alpha, beta and gamma) 3. alpha & beta globulins fxn = transport fat and fat-soluble vitamins Plasma Proteins • Globulins: 4. Gamma globulins also called immunoglobulins or antibodies – fxn to protect and provide immunity Plasma Proteins • Fibrinogens: 1.fxn = blood clot formation Chem. Rx: Clotting factors Prothrombin ------ thrombin thrombin Fibrinogen ---- fibrin threads for clot Injury to vessel and exposure of connective tissue to exposed chemicals (thromboplastin) starts the clotting cascade Plasma Proteins Plasma proteins A)include albumin, globulins, and fibrinogen.

Formed Elements • Include: – White blood cells= leucocytes – Red blood cells= erythrocytes – Platelets = thrombocytes • Form a platlet plug when a break in a BV occurs. • trigger-collagen exposed by BV damage Formed Elements • Leucocytes (wbc’s) – – – – 5 kinds Nucleated (polymorpho-nucleated) Larger but less numerous than rbc’s Fxn • 1 protect against invading microbes • 2 remove dead cells/debris from tissues – Divided into 2 categories Formed Elements • Leucocytes (wbc’s) – 2 categories 1.Agranulocytes = cytoplasm w/o granules 2.Granulocytes = cytoplasm w/ granules Leucocytes (wbc’s) • Agranulocytes (2) – Lymphocytes = large nucleus(2/3), provide immunity 1. 2 kinds lymphocytes T lymphocytes B lymphocytes (antibodies) Leucocytes (wbc’s) • Agranulocytes (2) 2. Monocytes = round, kidney- shaped or lobed nucleus 1. phagocytic wbc’s 2. can enter tissues = -diapedisissqueeze b/w cells that form BV walls -outside blood move in the spaces b/w cells by amoeboid motion Here we see a WBC squeezing its way out of a blood vessel – in other words, performing diapedesis. Damaged Cell WBC WBC Releases chemicals that attract WBCs (known as chemotactants). WBC WBC WBCs converge on the area – i.e., they exhibit positive chemotaxis. They then release more chemotactants to attract more WBCs. Leucocytes (wbc’s) • Granulocytes (3) – Neutrophils = pink granules (phagocytic) – Basophils = blue granules • release histamine/heparin – Eosinophils= red granules • Release chemicals to dec inflammation and attack worm parasites In this picture, find: RBCs, 2 neutrophils, an eosinophil, a basophil, a monocyte, a lymphocyte, and a platelet. Never Neutrophils Let Lymphocytes Monkeys Monocytes Eat Eosinophils Bananas Basophils Leucocytes (wbc’s) The white blood cells called granulocytes are A)erythrocytes, thrombocytes, and megakaryoblasts.

Hematopoiesis Red Blood Cell Production erythropoeisis = red blood cell production, requires a hormone from kidney called erythropoietin Consider K2 – the mountain below. – How would spending time on its upper slopes affect your body’s EPO levels? – How would it affect your blood viscosity? Platelets • thrombocytes = cell fragments • produced from megakarocytes that shed their cytoplasm (large cells) • normally repel each other,unless activated • function = hemostasis (stoppage of bleeding) Hemostasis • 3 steps (upon damage to blood vessel) Step 1: Vascular Spasm = smooth muscle in blood vessels constricts to reduce blood loss Hemostasis • 3 steps (upon damage to blood vessel) Step 2: Platelet plug = platelets stick to injury site and each other forming a plug Hemostasis • 3 steps (upon damage to blood vessel) Step 3: Blood clot formation = activated fibrin threads form a meshwork around plug, condensing it to a clot Clot dissolution • fibrinolysis by enzyme, plasmin •prevents unwanted clots b/c blood contains anticoagulants heparin (basophils) antithrombin (liver) RBC’s Erythrocytes A)are biconvex disks.

Circulation • Heart provides the major force for circulation of blood • Peripheral Circulation fxn: – Carry blood- Hearttissuesheart – Exhange nutrients,waste,gases • Nutrients and oxygenBlood vessel (BV) to cells • Wastes and carbon dioxidecells to BV – Transport-hormones, immune mediators, clotting factors, enzymes, nutrients, gases, waste products… – Regulate BP by heart and circulation working together – Direct flow to tissues when increased blood flow is required Features of Blood vessels • Arteries carry blood away from the heart – decrease in diameter an increase in # as they project away from the heart – Repeated branching eventually leads to arterioles • Blood flows from the arterioles to capillariesthin walls allow for exchanges (nutrient and wastes) to occur b/w blood and tissue fluids. – Precapillary sphincters regulate flow through capillary networks • Blood flows from the capillaries to veins and returns the blood to the heart – Veins (thinner walled structures than arteries) increase in diameter and decrease in # as they project towards the heart. Blood vessel structure • 3 layers (except in capillaries and venules) – Tunica intima (innermost layer) • Endotheliumsimple sq epithelium, basement membrane and small qty of connective tissue – Tunica media (middle layer) • Contains variable qty’s of elastic and collagen fibers – Tunica adventitia (outer layer) • Denser connective tissue adjacent to tunica media and more loose connective tissue towards the outer portion of the BV wall Blood vessel structure Blood vessel structure Capillary wall Capillary wallsimple squamous epi. allows exchange of gases, nutrients and wastes Capillary network Smooth muscle cells (precapillary sphincter) regulate flow through the capillaries. flow increasesdilation flow decreaseconstriction Circulatory system (blood flow) Rt atriumRt ventriclepulmonary trunk pulmonary arterieslung capillaries (lose CO2 and gain O2)Lt atriumLt ventricle Aortaarteries (to all of body)tissue capillariesVeins (back to heart) Blood psi • BP-measure of force blood exerts against the blood vessel walls. – In arteries exhibits a cycle dependency on the rhythmic contractions of the heart (i.e., heart contracts and psi increases and as heart relaxes blood perfuses through tissues) – Systolic psi-ventricles contractblood forced into arteriespsi maximum – Diastolic psi-ventricles relaxbp in arteries falls to a minimum value – Measured in mm Hg (100 mm Hg psi great enough to lift a column of mercury 100 mm) Blood psi measurement When cuff psi exceeds Brachial artery psino sound Systolic psifirst sound heard when brachial artery psi exceeds cuff pressure during systole (turbulent flow) Diastolic psipsi when sound disappears. When cuff psi decreases below the psi in the brachial artery and remains open during systole and diastole. (Nonturbulent flowno sound) Capillary exchange 1. BP > osmotic driving force 2.

The material contains cholesterol and can eventually be dominated by deposition of dense connective tissue and Ca++ salts
