Ghost cells, which are disrupted erythrocyte membranes devoid of hemoglobin, are not counted in total red cell count. They are noted as structures of interest and potential pathological significance, since they can indicate the presence of immune-mediated hemolytic anemia, or microvascular disease, such as disseminated intravascular coagulation or splenic disease.

Which statement is true for cells represented by these models?
There is more total surface area on the eight smaller cells than there is on the one large cell.
How could the pour plate procedure be used for counting the number of bacteria in a sample?
It is recommended that plates that should be counted should be between 30 and 300 McCance and Harrigan (1992). When more that 300 colonies you cant count them with great accuracy and represented with TNC ( too numerous to count). If colonies are less that 30 do you conclude that there was no bacteria in a product or food, if counting less than 20 colonies is unrealistic. Some standards are zero tolerant where even one colony means alot. So IDF (19991/1992) came up with a formula which takes in account the plates with/ even less than 30 colonies. The formula takes into account all sums of colonies obtained on the pour plates to come up with total cfus
What is the unit of measure for hematocrit?
The number of red blood cells over the total blood volume times 100 equals the percentage of hematocrit.
How many chromosomes are present in human haploid and diploid cells?
human diploid numbers are 46 chromosomes (the total amount of chromosomes) and the haploid number is 23 (half the number of chromosomes) in meiosis the desired number is the haploid number for gametes (sex cells) and it becomes the diploid number after fertilization and for mitosis its the diploid number because it wants to maintain its chromosomes since its not sexual reproduction
What are the functions of the nurse cells?
Human physiology Nurse cells are specialized macrophages residing in the bone marrow, that assist in the development of red blood cells. They absorb the nuclei of immature red blood cells and may provide growth factors to help the red blood cells mature. In the bone marrow, immature red blood cells (erythroblasts) can be seen grouped in a cluster around a nurse cell.Microbiology Nurse cell is a term used to describe an infected cell in the disease trichinosis. A trichinella larva enters a cell and develops there, probably as a way of concealing itself from the immune system. The parasite has evolved a way of stimulating blood vessel development around the cell, in order to receive the nutrients it needs. In trichinosis, nurse cells are invariably skeletal muscle cells; this are the only type of cell that can support the parasite. Nurse cells in respect to drosophilla: These polytenic germline contribute to the development of the drosophilla oocyte, producing about 250-500 nuclei each 15 of them in each oocyte create 5000 nuclei in total. They dump their cytoplasm containing the nuclei into the oocyte via ring channels. http://www.answers.com/topic/nurse-cell?cat=technology

Does a spectrophotometer measure total cell count or viable cell count?
The spectrophotometer measures total cell count, including both live and dead cells.
What is the formula for total counting of red blood cell?

How many pilgrims did the narrator count at the inn?

What does the countblank function actually count?
Countblank function is a derivative of count function and it is doing a very simple task - countblank function counts the number of cells in the range with no data. Actually, if you'll add the results for count/a function and countblank function you'll get the total number of cells in the range (empty and not).
What does a red blood cell count determine?
The red blood cell (RBC) count determines the total number of red cells (erythrocytes) in a sample of blood. The red cells, the most numerous of the cellular elements, carry oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues.
