What part of the blood destroys dead and damaged cells?

Well, there are white blood cells which get rid of dead or damaged cells. Red blood cells are the main souce in your blood. It makes your blood red.

red blood cells

White Blood Cells. (Leukocytes)

The structure involved in the breakdown of red blood cells are called macrophages. Macrophages are white blood cells that are in connective tissues. They are formed to accumulate damaged or dead cells.

Phagocytes that "eat" microorganisms and dead or damaged cells.

The spleen functions to filter out dead or damaged cells from the bloodstream. It also is a part of the immune system, as it stores white blood cells and is the primary site of antibody formation.

Blood stream and then used 2 repair damaged or to replace dead cells.

what happens if the brain cells are damaged? Your brain might be damaged permanently. You could be brain dead.

White blood cells in the human body fight disease(s) by killing bacteria. They also rid the body of dead or damaged cells. They keep your immune system in check.

they repoduce the dead cells

White blood cells engulf (eat) dead cells. They are like vacuum cleaners. :)

exactly that- dead blood cells! Maybe they are the things that gather and cause pimples!

the spleen filters the blood for any dead or dameged cells.

If only the first layer of cells is damaged, then only the dead cells will be affected (and fall off). This acts as protection for the newer cells underneath.

white blood cells

Red blood cells are alive.

A bruise occurs from blood leaking from damaged skin tissue into the interstitial layers of the skin usually from an impact. It will be dark from the onset but will lighten to a greenish-yellow color as the body cleans these dead blood cells out of the damaged area. It will eventually clear up all the way.

cellular respiration

The spleen filters the red blood cells and removes dead cells.

the substance might you expect to is dead blood cells

Its just because damaged cells alignment and dead cells

disposes of dead blood cells (red blood cells, whites cells, etc.)

the neutrophis they are known as pus cells

The red blood cells are processed in the liver and the dead cells are sent to the spleen which is the red blood cell 'cemetery'

You have cells that continuously go to it as well as blood. If your dead, your blood and cells are not moving therefore your eyes don't get the coloration they are supposed to, because of lack of blood

The liver is important in removing dead red blood cells because it breaks the dead red blood cells into bilirubin which is coverted to bile and stored in the gall bladder and ferratin which is converted to iron and stored in the liver

It is an advantage because,if you get hurt in any way,newly-formed cells will not be damaged.

to make a barrier from the environment? to repair other damaged/dead cells via mitosis.

Blood cells automatically die after 100-120 days for red blood cells and in a few days for white blood cells. They remain in the blood stream until they are detected by macrophages which are cells that discover and essentially eat dead cell. This process involves them surrounding the cells with a special coating that disallows them from re entering the blood stream. They are then eventually eliminated macrophages and all through the digestive system or…

Homing is the process of determining the location of something, sometimes the source of a transmission, and going to it. Macrophages are important cells of the immune system that are formed in response to an infection or accumulating damaged or dead cells. So macrophage homing is the ability of white blood cells to get to the source of an infection.

White blood cells are the army of the blood. They fight off infection and when you have a blister, and pop it, and pus comes out, that is dead white blood cells.

Dead skin cells and white blood cells.

No, if they are dead nerve cells...

No. The lymphatic system carries dead blood cells and other cells out of your blood and dumps it in a safe place in the body.

what in the sweet potatoe

yes its red and white blood cells that have died inside you and the vessels and systems they are in lead them to these locations Actually, hair and nails are made up of dead skin cells that have been filled with keratin. They are not dead blood cells.

The white blood cells react to the virus (live or dead) in the vaccine.

In Bone Marrow, where they replace ones that die in the blood. Dead red blood cells sink to the bottom of the blood vessel where they are "cleaned" (eaten) by special cells.

You'd be dead if you took out cells

In theory it is the targeted cancerous cells. These may be in the original tumor or may have migrated away from it. But there may be some collateral damage to other more sensitive normal cells. In any case the dead or weakened cells are cleaned up by various scavenger cells in the blood and some products eliminated by organs like the liver.

White Blood Cells ~ Cells that kills germs and dead cells. Red Blood Cells ~ it gives blood its color. Lots of cells are in our body. Its cool to learn about humans in Science. also,every living thing is made up of cells.

red blood cells are removed by macrophages in spleen, liver and bone marrow.

Pus contains bacterial, white blood cells and dead skin cells. The type of white blood cells that are in pus is called neutrophils.

it gets rid of old and dead blood cells

The red blood cells as much smaller with a more definite disk shape. They are just the right size to fit through the smallest cappilaries. The generic white blood cells (although it actually has many different types) is much bigger and has a far more fluid structure much like an amoeba. It has the abbility to actively move rather than just be pushed around in the blood, this allows it to move in the interstitium…

medication kills damaged cells example if you have a dead blood cell that is still hooked with the natural arteries that then gets washed away by the medication.But to be careful do not take to much medication or else up can end up damaging the veins that are connected to your arteries.

They die in the vessels, but the spleen has special cells that go to dissolve the dead red blood cells. We actually excrete them when we go to the toilet its the dead blood and bile juices that give the excrement the dark brown look.

Viruses stay inside the cells. They can not be attacked by the white blood cells. Bacteria are usually stay outside the cells. They are readily attacked by the white blood cells. There is fight between white blood cells and bacteria. Pus contains the dead bacteria and dead white blood cells. That is why the pus formation occurs in bacterial infection only. This is the probable answer to above question.

Dead blood cells!
