CH 16 - Circulation
16.2 Blood and Lymph

I. Blood
Blood is made up of 4 components:
Plasma
Red blood cells
White blood cells
Platelets

A. Plasma

Plasma the liquid part of blood

90% water
10% dissolved material

Plasma carries nutrients

EX: glucose, fats, vitamins and minerals

Also carries chemical messengers and

wastes

B. Red Blood Cells

Red blood cells (RBCs) cells in blood
that take up O2 in the lungs and deliver it
to the rest of the body.
RBCs are made in bone marrow.
Their shape enables them to easily bend
and move through tight places.

B. Red Blood Cells

Hemoglobin an iron containing protein
in RBCs that binds chemically to oxygen
molecules

C. White Blood Cells

White Blood Cells (WBCs) the bodys
disease fighters.
Function to fight disease

C. White Blood Cells

4 ways WBCs are different from RBCs

There are fewer WBCs than RBCs

WBCs are bigger
WBCs have a nucleus RBCs do not
WBCs can live months or years, RBCs only
to about 120 days.

D. Platelets
Platelets are cell fragments that are
important in forming blood clots

D. Platelets
How Blood Clots Form:
When a blood vessel is cut, platelets
collect and stick to the vessel at the site
of the wound
They release chemicals that start a chain
reaction that produce fibrin which weaves
tiny fibers across the cut and creates a
scab.

Warm Up 5/13/15
How many different things make up
blood and what are they and what do
they do?

II. Blood Types

A blood transfusion is the transfer of
blood from one person to another.
Markers in plasma that contain clumping
proteins will make foreign blood cells
clump together
EX: Type A given to Type B A blood
cells will clump

II. Blood Types

4 TYPES OF BLOOD:
Blood Type A has anti-B proteins
Blood Type B has anti-A proteins
Blood Type AB has no clumping proteins
Blood Type O has both anti-A and anti-B
Marker molecules on your RBCs
determine your blood type and type of
blood that you can safely receive.

II. Blood Types

II. Blood Types

II. Blood Types

Rh Factor the marker on RBCs that
determines whether the persons blood
type is Rh negative or Rh positive.
Rh negative lack the marker
Rh positive has the marker

III. Lymphatic System

Lymphatic system
the network of vein-like
vessels that return fluid
to the bloodstream

III. Lymphatic System

Lymph fluid inside the lymphatic system
Lymph nodes small knobs of tissue that
filter lymph and trap bacteria and other
microorganisms that cause disease
They enlarge when you are fighting off
infections
