Blood

Iron

CRP is also known as C-Reactive Protein. It basically shows inflammation in the body. It can be high for a variety of reasons. A heart attack would have a CRP to be high. It can also be high due to an illness, or even a flare up in conditions such as lupus.

This is usually called a VASO-VAGAL reaction which is your body response to a painfull and/or unpleasant stimuli (cold sweats, low blood pressure, fainting, tachycardia and so on...)

The part of your body that has the most blood the tongue.

and the heart is also the most blooded part of ythe body because the whole transport to the whole body and evevn each cell is done by the heart with the help of veins and cappillaries.

The blood's oxygen transport mechanism depends upon hemoglobin, so a person with no hemoglobin would immediately succumb to anoxia, unless such a person were to be placed in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

There is normally no blood in semen. However, if a guy ejaculates especially strongly, some tiny capillaries might burst, injecting a small amount of blood into the semen.

Especially in older men, if there is cancer in the prostate, there can be quite a bit of blood in the semen.

Blood draws normally occur through veins, though which blood moves slowly. There is low pressure and little muscular activity in the veins, resulting in lower pressure.

it costs $300 to $1000 to produce a unit of artificial blood

It costs $150 to $200 to produce a unit of transfused blood..It's not free, it has to go through necessary screening protocals before using it.

The hematocrit is lower in an anemic individual because the hematocrit is the result of a test for iron in the blood. If a person has anemia, that also means that the blood is starved of iron.

Depends on the test.

Only a tiny drop from the tip of your finger. no pain at all. ( When this type test is made using a blood test device in drugstores (if they are allowed to perform it). I my country it is an usual practice. When you make this test through a laboratory office, the amount of blood is about 3 ml.

In an average healthy adult, the volume of blood is about one-eleventh of the body weight. Most sources state the volume of blood in an average human adult, who is between 150 to 160 pounds, as between 4.7 and 5 liters, although the more recent sources state the volume of blood in an average adult as 4.7 liters. Sources state that an 80-pound child had about half that amount, and an 8-pound infant has about 8.5 ounces. People who live at high altitudes, where the air contains less oxygen, may have up to 1.9 liters more blood than people who live in low altitude regions.

Anemia is caused by a lack of healthy red blood cells. As for what it takes to become anemic the list could go on and on. Basically anything that causes destruction of red blood cells can cause anemia, but destruction is not the only cause. It may also be caused by a lack of production of healthy red blood cells or if the destruction rate of the healthy cells is faster than your body can make them.

As for causes the only ones that I know of (I'm sure someone can give you more) are vitamin deficiencies, excessive bleeding, and some types of auto immune diseases (where the immune system attacks the red blood cells). I am sure there are many other causes, but from my understanding these are the most common. :)

the life span of the RBC decreases in the absence of both a nucleus and cellular organells

Because of the loss of the nucleus and organelles it is unable to reproduce or repair any damage that may occur

practically no difference. In both the hemoglobin has the same job, bonding with oxygen.

I'm assuming "drinking" means alcohol.

Alcohol speeds up your metabolism at first (makes you high), however after a while it slows down your metabolism which makes you unable to think clearly and react normally.

It likely emanates from the old myth that blood is blue until it hits oxygen. It is common though in diagrams of the cardiovascular system to designate arteries are red and veins as blue although neither are actually that color.

Given the total Hb concentration, and the mean corpuscular Hb concentration, Hct can be estimated using the formula Hb/MCHC x 100

in the marrow of bones im pretty sure (blood vesels run through small holes in the bone) i heard this in science class and im probably right

Smoking is a leading cause of premature death. Red blood cell (RBC) membrane lipids are rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids; therefore, the effect of oxygen on RBC membranes is more prominent than on other body tissues. The attachment of peroxidants to RBC membranes can result in hemolysis.

There are a number of mechanisms for carbon dioxide transport in the blood, and which ones are used and to what extent depends on the level of CO2 in the blood.

In normal conditions CO2 is picked up via the spent hemoglobin (which has discharged 1 or 2 of its four oxygen carrying sites) and carried back to the lungs for gas exchange as carbaminohemoglobin. As an aside, the pick up of CO2 by hemoglobin renders the hemoglobin less able to carry Oxygen, and has the affect of forcing additional remaining oxygen molecules off the hemoglobin and into the blood stream, making even higher amounts of oxygen available at the tissue level.

Unlike Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide dissolves readily in blood. Should there be more CO2 in the blood than can be carried by the hemoglobin, the balance will for the most part be dissolved directly into the blood via the equation below, facilitated by an enzyme known as Carbonic Anhydrase:

This equation defines the role of carbonic acid as a buffer in the blood, keeping pH relatively constant in spite of continually changing acidic products levels in the blood (higher CO2 near the muscles, lower CO2 near the lungs). Note that excess bicarbonate (HCO3) and hydrogen ion (H+) concentrations are excreted by the kidneys, although in healthy circumstances these are recombined when CO2 is excreted during gas exchange in the lungs.

This is a "short" version of a very complex and dynamic topic. There are many other buffers in the blood that provide back up assurance that pH does not become overly influenced by increases and decreases in CO2 as part of the normal respiratory cycle.

No. It does not affect your pregnancy test. You do pregnancy test on your urine.

Haemoglobin is found the red blood cell (RBC), not in the platelet.
