What else can I help you with?
What is the tissue that is in your bones that make up red blood cells?
bone marrow
What human bones make red blood cells?
Red blood cells are produced in the bone marrow of flat bones like the pelvis, sternum, and skull. These bones contain stem cells that differentiate into red blood cells through a process called hematopoiesis.
How do red blood cells and bones work together?
blood flows around the bone to make more cells
Do flat bones produce red blood cells?
No, flat bones do not produce red blood cells. Red blood cells are primarily produced in the bone marrow, specifically in the spongy or trabecular bone marrow found in bones like the vertebrae, ribs, pelvis, and long bones. Flat bones, such as the skull, sternum, and scapula, do not have as much active bone marrow for red blood cell production.
What kind of bones make blood?
Bone marrow. Bone marrow is where blood cells are created. Only long bones (with the "hole" in the center) have bone marrow in them. So leg bones and arm bones make blood cells, but rib bones or skull bones do not. So those short, solid, irregular-shaped bones do not create blood cells.
What is the soft tissue found inside bones which make red blood cells?
Bone marrow.
Where are red blood cells and white blood cells produced?
In the bone marrow
Red blood cells aremade from what bone?
They are made from red bone marrow of long bones.
Where is bone marrow and what does it do?
Bone marrow is found in the long bones of the body and also in the pelvic bones. The long bones are the femur, which is the thigh bone and the humerus which is the upper arm bone. the pelvic bones are the hip bones. The center if these bones contain the marrow and this is where the red blood cells are made. Red blood cells transport oxygen around the body to all other cells. Red blood cells live for 120 days. They are destroyed in the spleen.
What part of the bone helps make red and white blood cells?
Red blood cells are made in the Blood Marrow.
Does skeleton store red blood cells?
Store? No. However, the bone marrow, the spongy stuff INSIDE the bones, does MAKE red blood cells.
Are red blood cells produced in bones?
Red blood cells, in order to store more hemoglobin to carry oxygen, don't have a nucleus that can make repairs. So red blood cells only last, on average, 120 days. Because they constantly need to be reproduced and your bones, believe it or not, are very well vascularized, it seems like a pretty good place to store the marrow to make more red blood cells.
