What else can I help you with?
What serves as a reservoir for erythrocytes and platelets?
the bone marrow
What are some blood components?
Erythrocytes, Leukocytes, Platelets, Plasma
What produces erythrocytes granular leukocytes and platelets?
they come from the bone marrow
Is erythrocytes another term for platelets?
Erythrocytes are one of the formed elements of blood. They carry gases throughout the body. The formed elements of blood are red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes).
Why erythrocytes and platelets are not true cells?
They do not have a nucleus. RBC carry oxygen to body.
What are three different types of blood cells?
Red (erythrocytes)White (leukocytes)Platelets (Thrombocytes)
What is the most abundant element in blood?
Erythrocytes, or red blood cells, are the most abundant of the formed elements of the blood. The other formed elements are leukocytes (white blood cells) and thrombocytes (platelets).erythrocytes (red blood cells)Erythrocytes (red blood cells or RBCs)platelets, for about 250,000-500,000 per mm3 of blood.
What are three cells found in blood?
red blood cell (erythrocytes), white blood cell (leukocytes), and platelets
What do the formed elements of the blood include and which are cell fragments?
The formed elements of blood are red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes). Thrombocytes are the formed element that is actually a cell fragment. Platelets are important in blood clotting.
What are three main blood cells found in blood?
Red cells - erythrocytes White cells - lymphocytes Platelets - thrombocytes
Name the formed elements that arise from myeloid stem cells?
Formed elements that arise from myeloid stem cells include erythrocytes (red blood cells), megakaryocytes (platelets), granulocytes (neutrophils, basophils, and eosinophils), and monocytes (which differentiate into macrophages and dendritic cells).
The only formed elements that are not spherical?
The only formed elements that are not spherical are red blood cells (erythrocytes) which are biconcave in shape, and platelets (thrombocytes) which are irregularly shaped discs. Both of these cell types play important roles in the body's functions such as oxygen transport (red blood cells) and blood clotting (platelets).
