Erythropoiesis (eyrth=red, poiesis=production of) is the production of red blood cells.
It occurs in the red bone marrow of flat bones and the heads of some long bones (sternum, rib, pelvis, vertebrae) in adulthumans.
Intrauterine (human) it occurs in yolk sac, spleen, liver, lymph nodes, and red bone marrow.
The production of red blood cells takes place in the bone marrow.

Erythropoiesis, the production of red blood cells, occurs primarily in the bone marrow of human adults.
Erythropoiesis mainly takes place in the bone marrow of the long bones.

Hypoxia in the blood triggers erythropoiesis.
Erythropoiesis is the process by which red blood cells (erythrocytes) are produced. In human adults, this usually occurs within the bone marrow. In humans with certain diseases and in some animals, erythropoeiesis also occurs outside the bone marrow, within the spleen or liver. This is termed extramedullary erythropoiesis.
Erythropoiesis requires B12, Folic acid and iron.
Ah, the formation of Red Cells. The Fetal Liver & Kidneys are known to make red cells, It may be that the placenta makes them too. This one is still being debated.
