What does Interstitial fluid contain?
Interstitial fluid contains water, electrolytes, nutrients, gases, hormones, waste products, and white blood cells. It helps to provide a medium for the exchange of substances between blood vessels and surrounding cells.
Where do white blood cells red blood cells and platelets travel in to go wheere they are needed in the human body?
White blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets all travel within the bloodstream to reach different parts of the body where they are needed. They are carried by the circulating blood to various tissues and organs to perform their respective functions, such as fighting infections (white blood cells), delivering oxygen (red blood cells), and aiding in blood clotting (platelets).
Lymph is an example of which type of fluid?
Lymph is an example of interstitial fluid that flows through the lymphatic system. It consists of water, proteins, fats, and white blood cells, and plays a crucial role in maintaining fluid balance and immunity in the body.
Interstitial fluid plus blood cells and large proteins?
Interstitial fluid is the fluid surrounding cells in tissues that exchanges nutrients, gases, and waste products with blood. It does not normally contain blood cells or large proteins, as these are typically found within blood vessels. If blood cells or large proteins are present in the interstitial fluid, it may indicate damage to blood vessels or leakage due to inflammation or injury.
What wander through the interstitial fluid eating whatever bacteria and virus infected cells they encounter and recognize?
White blood cells, particularly phagocytes such as macrophages and neutrophils, patrol the interstitial fluid to detect and consume bacteria and virus-infected cells. These cells play a critical role in the immune response by identifying and eliminating pathogens to maintain overall health and prevent infections.
Where does lymph come from?
Lymph comes from the interstitial fluids spaces in blood where interstitial fluid is found. Lymph is composed mainly of white blood cells.
What is Interstitial fluid that enters a lymphatic vessel?
Interstitial fluid that enters a lymphatic vessel contains waste products, nutrients, proteins, and white blood cells. It is filtered and purified as it travels through the lymphatic system, eventually returning to the bloodstream.
All exchanges between cells and the blood are made through?
interstitial fluid
Is lymph more similar to blood plasma or to interstitial fluid?
Interstitial fluid comes from blood plasma which leaks out of the pores of capillaries. It differs in that the larger molecules mostly proteins and blood cells are too large to fit through the pores, and so the interstitial fluid lacks these. The interstitial fluid does contain the salts and the smaller molecules such as amino acids, sugars, fatty acids, coenzymes, hormones, neurotransmitters, which are present in blood plasma.
What provides transport for white and red blood cells?
blood maybe Edit: Most red and white blood cells come from the bone marrow and then travel in the blood through the veins.
What is the path of lymph from the interstitial spaces to the blood capillaries?
from interstitial spaces towards the heart through lymphatic capillaries to lympahtic vessels then to lymphatic nodes then to the right lymphatic duct once in the venous blood, the lymph is then recycled through the body through the circulatory system
Blood is primarily and mostly produced by the?
Red blood cells and white blood cells are produced by bone marrow. Blood plasma is a form of interstitial fluid that is produced by the body.
What pathway does blood travel through blood vessels?
the blood travel through blood vessels is the Artrium or atria. :-)
Do white blood cells travel through the heart?
Yes. All Blood cells travel around the body through the circulatory system which includes the heart.White blood cells are produced by bone marrow and enter the blood stream to fight infection.
What is the red fluid that flows through the blood?
Blood
What is the function of interstitial fluid?
Interstitial fluid is the liquid which surrounds the cells in the body. The function of intestitial fluid is to carry substances between the blood and the tissue cells. Substances passing out of the blood capillaries eg food,oxygen, pass through the interstitial fluid to reach the body cells. Substances produced by the cells eg carbon dioxide waste, pass through the tissue fluid to enter the blood capillaries. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_fluid
