Erythropoiesis: The production of blood cells
Hyperventilating
The hormone that regulates the rate of erythrocyte (red blood cell) production is called erythropoietin. It is produced mainly by the kidneys in response to low oxygen levels in the blood. Erythropoietin stimulates the bone marrow to produce more red blood cells to increase oxygen delivery to tissues.
yes.
The Spleen
The exact word for this would be ''erythropoiesis''.
red blood cells are also called erythrocytes
kidneys secrete an hormone named Erythropoietin which stimulates RBC production
Erythropoietin
Ovulation
Ovulation.
The production of erythrocytes by the red bone marrow is stimulated by the hormone erythropoetin produced by the kidneys.
Altitude affects erythrocyte count by stimulating the production of more red blood cells to compensate for lower oxygen levels in the blood at higher altitudes. This process, known as erythropoiesis, helps increase the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood to meet the body's demand for oxygen in low-oxygen environments.
