Hematology
24
hematopoiesis:blood cell production
plasma:straw colored liquid part of the blood
serum:plasma without fibrinogen and other clotting factors
nutrients:nourish tissues of the body
electrolytes:fluid and acid base balance
erythrocytes:transport gases between the lungs and tissues
hemoglobin:oxygen binding protein
hemolysis:breakdown of red blood cells
leukocytes:provide main line of defense against foreign invaders
diapedesis:movement of wbc through the capillaries to fight infection
lymphocytes:leukocyte that makes antibodies
monocytes:leukocyte that is the first line of defense in the inflammatory process
granulocytes:leukocytes that have granules in cytoplasm
phagocytic:removal of pathogens by engulfing them
neutrophils:most abundant leukocyte and main granulocyte
eosinophils:cytotoxic leukocyte, increased with allergic reactions and parasitic infections
basophils:least numerous leukocyte
thrombocytes:smallest cell found in the body
platelets:aid in sealing wounds until a clot can form
hemostasis:the arrest of bleeding
aggregation:platelets stick to one another
adhesion:platelets stick to injured area
fibrinolysis:removal of fibrin clot once healing has occured
hematocrit:measures the % volume of packed red cells in whole blood
