Blood

There's no such thing as ''Piru Blood'' Pirus & Bloods are two different yet similar gangs, Pirus wear the burgundy bandana & Bloods wear the red bandana.Pirus are under the blood alliance tho but yea they're two different gangs...

why do u wanna know about their ranks anyways?? are u Piru? are u Blood?

yes plasma flows

Very Very Similar.

The biggest functional difference is the metallic atom in the centre of the molecule.

In Chlorophyll this is Magnesium (Mg) , In Haemoglobin it is Iron (Fe) .

Technically, they are not actually molecules but "Complex Ions" but this only matters if you are doing an A-Level Chemistry exam.

There is also a good bit of a structural difference but it seems minor compared to the simularities as you will see.

The following may seem a wee bit silly but it DOES give you a good idea of the

overall structure of these two molecules.

1 Imagine that you are wearing a long sleeved Jumper or Shirt.

Both sleeves should be rolled down to your wrists.

2 Imagine that you have two Snooker or Pool balls, one Red and one Green.

3 Hold out your Left hand , place the Red ball in the palm and curl your fingers

into a "C" shape. (Try to keep your Thumb straight-ish).

4 Make a "C" shape with your Right hand and cover the exposed part of the

ball. Your Right finger tips should be sort of resting on your Left thumb. Your

Right thumb should resting on the base of your Left Palm more or less

parallel to your Left Wrist.

Your Forearms should now be at an angle of 90 Degrees (or Pi/2 Radians

if you prefer) to each other.

I know a diagram would have been easier but....

You now have quite a detailed model of the Haemoglobin molecule.

The Iron atom is the Red ball (which you can't see now) in the centre of your

cupped hands.

Your Left Palm (inc. Thumb) , Left Fingers , Right Palm (inc. Thumb) and Right Fingers each represent a Porphyrin molecule , four of which surround the Iron atom.

Porphyrins are usually found in Clay ( the stuff you make pottery from). Insert

your own metaphore here....

Here comes the Fashion bit! CONCENTRATE!!!!!

5 OK. Put down the Red ball.

6 With your Right Hand roll the Left Sleeve of your imaginary Jumper or Shirt

until it reaches your Left Elbow.

7 Pick up the Green ball and perform steps 3 and 4 again.

You now have a model of the Chlorophyll molecule. The Iron (Fe) has been

replaced by a Magnesium (Mg) atom hence the colour change from Red to Green.

The 4 Porphyrin molecules are in the same positions surrounding the central atom and......

As if by magic , your Left Forearm is now a long chain of about 20 Carbon atoms and their associated Hydrogen atoms

( -CH2-CH2.etcetera.etcetera.-CH2-CH-COOH? something like that).

This is the structural difference i mentioned above. Sort of like the stick on "Kojacs Lollypop" , the Lolly is the more important part.

REMEMBER TO READJUST THE LENGTH OF YOUR SLEEVES BEFORE YOU LEAVE

After the blood cells leave one of the four heart chambers, it flows through arteries, which then lead to the destination. Ie; limbs, organs, etc.

blood clots

Red blood cells have the responsibility of transporting oxygen throughout the body. About 33% of the weight of a red blood cell is attributed to a specialized protein called hemoglobin. Because of this, red blood cells are often referred to as "bags of hemoglobin."

Kidneys are part of the urinary system. They are also considered part of the excretory system.

The medical term for platelet is "thrombocyte." If you have a decreased amount of platelets, the condition is "thrombocytopenia" or thrombopenia.

CO2 is the body's natural acid, so if your body has too much CO2 it will begin to compensate. Your body "blows off" CO2 through your respiratory system. Increased respiratory rate and depth will "blow off" excess CO2

4.01 million red blood cells per decaliter (0.1 L) of blood plasma. A normal reading is generally considered to be 4.5-5.5, or as wide of a range of 4.2-5.8. A reading of 4.01 means a low level of red blood cells, meaning the subject is anemic.

It increases WBC temporarily as a defense mechanism because the heart is actually getting less blood from cocaine in the arteries.

Lymphopoiesis

Carbon dioxide and oxygen

Each molecule of hemoglobin combines with 4 oxygen molecules to carry oxygen from the lungs through the bloodstream to the organs.

hematocrit
The hematocrit is the percentage of red blood cells by volume.
A hematocrit is the term that describes the percentage by volume of a blood sample occupied by red blood cells. It is usually about 45%.
Hematocrit

Anemia is due to an iron deficiency which may lead to a decreased red cell count, a more serious condition is leukositic anemia which may become Leukemia, and is marked by a low red count, as well as an extremely high white count. There are 400 kinds of anemia, divided into 3 main groups. Blood loss (internal bleeding [ulcers etc.]), Menstruation, and childbirth. Defective, or deficient red blood cells, or vitamin, iron or other deficiencies.

The first step in treatment of serum sickness is always to discontinue the drug or other substance which is suspected of causing the reaction. After that, all treatment is symptomatic. Antihistamines, pain relievers, and corticosteroids may be given.

The blood of a horseshoe crab is blue, it's not deep, it's more of a pale blue. It's blue rather than red like ours, due to the presence of haemocyanin in the blood cells, instead of haemoglobin.

Hemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. It contains iron as one of its chief components.

It is unlikely that you are actually losing too much blood - most of it is fluid and mucus and waste lining from the uterus

lymphocytes would be the top category

There is no way to contract Leukemia or determine how it is caused thats something scientists are still trying to figure out. My daughter is a Leukemia Surrivior and all I can tell you is that in a child the most common age to be diagnosed is between 4 and 7yrs old. Leukemia happens when there is a increased number of immature white blood cells in the blood . The child can feel Tired, have aches and pains, sometimes you will see a rash on there skin from a decreased number of platlets also they can have increased bruising difficulty breathing or wheezing .. Sometimes Lukemia can be misdiagnosed as Asthma because they share some of the same symptoms. Its good to get Blood Work for your child exspecially if there sick for a extended period of time just to make sure or if they seem to get frequent colds or fevers. Its very hard to diagnose cancer in kids because it can mimic many childhood illness.

Haemoglobin.

Having a high platelet count may result to thrombosis, meaning, blood clot formation in the blood vessels. This is quite dangerous since there may be a chance that this blood clot (called thrombus) maybe dislodged (now called, embolus). The embolus (emboli-plural) now circulates in your system and may get stuck in an artery causing obstruction in blood flow. This is dangerous if the emboli obstructs a major artery, depending on the organs involve, it may lead to myocardial infarction (heart attack)congestive heart failure, renal failure, cerebrovascular accident (stroke), etc.

Hb of 10.7 is slightly on the low side
