Hematopoietic stem cells found in red bone marrow produce all blood cells in the body.
There are two types of bone marrow, red and yellow. Blood is produced in the cells of red marrow. Much of the red marrow inside arm and leg bones is gradually replaced by yellow marrow as a person matures to adulthood. Yellow marrow is composed primarily of specialized fat cells, but in an emergency yellow marrow is replaced by blood-forming red marrow when the body needs more blood.

What manufactures most blood cells?

What part of the bone are blood cells manufactured in?
The process of making blood cells is called hemopoiesis.The formation of red blood cells occurs in the bone marrow located in flat bones and femur. The bone marrow is soft spongy center of the bone. The formation of red blood cell is an extremely active process producing an estimate of 2.5 million red blood cells.The formation of white blood cells occurs in myeloid and lymphatic tissue. The myeloid are: longbones, ribs, sternum, and portions of skull. The lymphoid tissue are : lymphnodes, tonsils, spleen thymus.Platelet formation occurs at the genetic level.
