Biology Slide 1 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Slide 2 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Blood is a connective tissue that contains both dissolved substances and specialized cells. Slide 3 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood The functions of blood include: • collecting oxygen from the lungs, nutrients from the digestive tract, and waste products from tissues. • regulating the body’s internal environment. • helping to fight infections. • forming clots to repair damaged blood vessels. Slide 4 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Plasma Blood Plasma The body has 4–6 liters of blood. About 45% of blood volume is cells. The other 55% is plasma—a straw-colored fluid. Plasma is 90% water and 10% dissolved gases, salts, nutrients, enzymes, hormones, waste products, and plasma proteins.

Albumins regulate osmotic pressure and blood volume. Some globulins fight viral and bacterial infections. Fibrinogen is the protein that clots blood. Slide 8 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells Blood Cells The cellular portion of blood consists of: • • • red blood cells white blood cells platelets Slide 9 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells What is the function of each type of blood cell? Slide 10 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells Red Blood Cells The most numerous cells in the blood are the red blood cells. Red blood cells transport oxygen. Slide 11 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells Red blood cells get their color from hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is an iron-containing protein that transports oxygen from the lungs to tissues of the body. Slide 12 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells Red blood cells look like disks that are thinner in the center. They are produced in red bone marrow. They have no nuclei. They live for about 120 days. Slide 13 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells White Blood Cells White blood cells do not contain hemoglobin. They are less common than red cells. White blood cells are produced in bone marrow. They contain nuclei. White blood cells may live for days, months, or years. Slide 14 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells White blood cells are the “army” of the circulatory system—they • guard against infection, • fight parasites, • attack bacteria. Slide 15 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells There are many types of white blood cells. Phagocytes engulf and digest bacteria and other disease-causing microorganisms. Some white blood cells release histamines. Histamines increase blood flow into the affected area, producing redness and swelling. Slide 16 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells Lymphocytes produce antibodies. Antibodies are essential to fighting infection and help to produce immunity to many diseases. Slide 17 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells Platelets and Blood Clotting The body has an internal mechanism to slow bleeding and begin healing. Bleeding stops because blood has the ability to form a clot. Blood clotting is made possible by plasma proteins and platelets. Slide 18 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells Slide 19 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells Slide 20 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells Slide 21 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System Blood Cells Blood Clotting Problems If one of the clotting factors is missing or defective, the clotting process does not work well. Hemophilia is a genetic disorder that results from a defective protein in the clotting pathway. Hemophiliacs cannot produce blood clots that are firm enough to stop even minor bleeding. Slide 22 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System The Lymphatic System The Lymphatic System As blood circulates, some fluid leaks into surrounding tissues. This helps maintain movement of nutrients and salts from the blood into the tissues. Slide 23 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System The Lymphatic System What is the function of the lymphatic system? Slide 24 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System The Lymphatic System The lymphatic system collects the fluid that is lost by the blood and returns it back to the circulatory system. The fluid is known as lymph. Slide 25 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System The Lymphatic System Superior vena cava The Lymphatic System Thymus Heart Thoracic duct Spleen Lymph nodes Lymph vessels Slide 26 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System The Lymphatic System Lymph collects in lymphatic capillaries and flows into larger lymph vessels. Ducts collect the lymph and return it to the circulatory system through two openings in the superior vena cava. Slide 27 of 34 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 37–2 Blood and the Lymphatic System The Lymphatic System Along lymph vessels are enlargements called lymph nodes. Lymph nodes trap disease-causing microorganisms. When large numbers of microorganisms are trapped in the lymph nodes, the nodes become enlarged.
