No. Also, the bone marrow. ---- About half are. The other half are, like Dutchdear said, made in the bone marrow.

Is an organism tissues and organs are made of cells?

Cells make up tissues, and tissues make up organs.tissues are group of cells which perform similar action.so they are made up of cells only


What type of cells do a liver have?

blood cells look like apples right after they fall off of a tree.


What is the extra cellular matrix in blood called?

No. Blood contains a fluid extracelluar matrix called plasma, but blood cells do not because they are individual cells. Only tissues can have a matrix.


Differences of Hexokinase and glucokinase?

n nHexokinase: Its function is to make sure there is enough glc for the tissues, even in the presence of low blood glc concentrations, by phosphorylating all the glc concentration gradient between the blood and the intracellular environment. n nGlucokinase: Its function is to remove glc from the blood following a meal. n n(Hexokinase, Phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase, are 3 regulatory enzymes of glycolysis.) nLiver has an additional enzyme, glucokinase, that phosphorylate only glc n n1. Glucokinase has a high Km because it phosphorylates glc only when its concentration is high. This occurs during the brief period after consumption of a carbohydrate rich meal, when high glc are delivered by portal vein. n n2. Glucokinase has a high Vmax, allowing the liver to remove effectively this flood of glc from the portal blood. So this prevents extreme hyperglycemia after meals. n


Why is the boold carried to the liver before it enters the systemic circulation?

Blood is carried to the liver before entering systemic circulation primarily through the hepatic portal vein. This process allows the liver to filter and process nutrients, toxins, and other substances absorbed from the digestive tract. By doing so, the liver can metabolize nutrients, detoxify harmful substances, and regulate blood glucose levels, ensuring that only properly processed blood enters the systemic circulation. This is crucial for maintaining overall metabolic balance and health.

What does AST on a blood test mean?

AST stands for aspartate transaminase. It is an enzyme found in various cells, including liver cells, and elevated levels may indicate liver damage, but must be interpreted in the context of other liver tests, as it is not only found in liver cells, but other cell types as well. THIS TEST IS FOR LIVER PROBLEMS! CAN YOU BETTER DEFINE YOUR QUESTION AS RELATED TO A CURRETN CONDITION? An initial step in detecting liver damage is a simple blood test to determine the presence of certain liver enzymes in the blood. Under normal circumstances, these enzymes reside within the cells of the liver. But when the liver is injured for any reason, these enzymes are spilled into the blood stream. Enzymes are proteins that are present throughout the body, each with a unique function. Enzymes help to speed up (catalyze) routine and necessary chemical reactions in the body. Among the most sensitive and widely used of these liver enzymes are the aminotransferases. They include aspartate aminotransferase (AST or SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT or SGPT). These enzymes are normally contained within liver cells. If the liver is injured, the liver cells spill the enzymes into blood, raising the enzyme levels in the blood and signaling the liver damage.


Are red blood cells found in the liver?

Only within the blood vessels. And there are many, many of those.


What are facts about the liver?

the liver is responsible for plasma protein synthesis, detoxification an decompisition of red blood cells.etc. The liver is attached to two large blood vessels and the hepatic atery and the portal vein. The liver also has two MAIN lobes made of thousands of lobules. Did this help?


Is blood forming tissue only found in myeloid tissue?

Not all, some white blood cells come from lymphoid tissue, especially T-lymphocytes. Plasma proteins in the blood are made in the liver tissue not the myeloid tissue
