Blood

A hypotonic solution. The concentration of solute inside the cell is greater than that outside the cell and water enters the cell by osmosis. Water travels from an area of higher water concentration (outside the cell) to an area of lower water concentration (inside the cell) and the cell swells.

Could be any type, we all get our blood groups from our parents or even our grandparents so, if your child is not B positve, your child will have the same blood group as one of its four grandparents.

No, coumadin (warfarin) does not directly affect hemoglobin levels in the blood. It works by blocking the synthesis of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors, which helps in preventing blood clots. Hemoglobin levels can be influenced by factors such as anemia, bleeding, or certain medical conditions, but not by coumadin itself.

White cell blood tests are not specific for cancer, as many conditions can cause changes in white blood cell counts. However, abnormal white cell counts can be a sign of cancer and may prompt further investigation if other symptoms or risk factors are present. It is essential to consult with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and diagnosis.

This is a specialized cell that is designed to carry oxygen and co2 to the cells of the body. The red blood cell contains about 250 million molecules of hemoglobin (Hb), which is the specific oxygen binding protein that allows gas transport through out the body. Each molecule of hemoglobin can bind up to 4 molecules of oxygen, allowing a single cell to carry 1 billion molecules of oxygen. Another thing unique fact about the rbc is the fact that it is devoid of a nucleus. This allows for the cell to hold more molecules of Hb for oxygen transport. This also means that the red blood cell is unable to replicate it's DNA. The average life span is around 120 days, then they removed from circulation and replaced by new ones from the bone marrow.

In asthma, the body can release stress hormones like epinephrine, which can trigger an increase in hemoglobin levels. This happens as a response to the stress and inflammation caused by asthma, as the body tries to carry more oxygen to tissues and organs to support increased respiratory effort.

In clinical laboratory science it is common to wait 20-30 minutes for whole blood to clot totally in order to produce serum. The exact time depends on the container and the condition of the human subject.

The Dewey Decimal Classification system used in libraries is a good example of an artificial system of classification. It categorizes books based on their subject matter through a numerical system, allowing for efficient organization and retrieval of information.

It means that you need to talk to your doctor. The increase in white cells indicates that your body is trying to fight something. It could be an infection, or it could be a lot worse. Go talk to a doctor. Don't take it too lightly.

No.

A virus (virion) is technically not a living organism. This is because it is incapable of normal metabolic processes including reproduction (cellular division) and respiration. Viruses are only able to replicate or respire if the cell they infect is undergoing those processes itself, since the virus does not produce or contain the necessary proteins (it uses the host cell's). A dead multicellular organism does not undergo respiration or reproduction, or other metabolic process, either, mainly because there is no oxygen available to produce the necessary NTPs (ATP, GTP etc). Since the host cells are not undergoing these vital metabolic processes (they are dead), the virus can't either. Even if a virus mutated enough to produce its own proteins (which is pretty much impossible), dead multicellular organisms would not be able to provide the necessary oxygen. As a result it is biologically impossible for any true virus to reanimate a dead corpse.

In short, viruses (virions) are not 'alive', so are unable to bring life to a dead cell.

because if they have fewer red blood cells then they will not be able to absorb as much oxygen (what with haemoglobin and all) this means they must breath more and this, well, is tiring. also respiration requires more oxygen than anaemic people can supply

Platelets and various clotting factors, such as fibrinogen and prothrombin, are active in the blood clotting process. Platelets adhere to the site of injury to form a plug, while clotting factors work together in a cascade to form a stable blood clot.

Without enzymes, metabolic pathways would be extremely slow or unable to proceed because enzymes are needed to catalyze the chemical reactions that occur in these pathways. Enzymes lower the activation energy required for these reactions to take place, allowing them to occur efficiently within cells.

No, blood is not considered neutral. Blood has a pH range of around 7.35-7.45, making it slightly basic or alkaline. This pH range is important for maintaining the body's overall health and proper functioning.

During pregnancy the level of liver enzymes change. Serum total and free bilirubin concentrations are lowered. Serum alkaline phosphatase activity increases during late pregnancy. Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase activity levels decrease during the second and third trimesters and serum 5'nucleotidase activity increases slightly .

A hemoglobin level below 5 is extremely low and usually indicates severe anemia. Symptoms may include extreme fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, and dizziness. Immediate medical attention is necessary to determine the cause and provide appropriate treatment, which may include blood transfusions.

Pus is an exudate which contains dead and dying neutrophils (a type of white blood cells).

The presence of leukocytes in urine typically indicates inflammation or infection in the urinary tract, while the presence of erythrocytes can suggest bleeding in the urinary system. Further evaluation by a healthcare provider is usually needed to determine the underlying cause of these findings.

Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell that fight infection and kill microorganisms. Some causes of a low supply of neutrophils are congenital diseases related to the bone marrow, leukemia, radiation and chemotherapy.

When mast cells and basophils degranulate, they release inflammatory mediators such as histamine, cytokines, and leukotrienes. This process plays a key role in triggering allergic reactions and promoting inflammation in response to allergens or pathogens. Symptoms may include itching, swelling, redness, and increased blood flow to the affected area.

Red blood cells are the most numerous in the blood. They are much smaller than any of the other cells. An adult has about 25 trillion red blood cells, which is about a quarter of the total number of cells in the human body.

The red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body and help carry away carbon dioxide.

Red blood cells are also called erythrocytes.

They have no nucleus, so they sink in in the area where the nucleus should be. Oxygen binds to the surface of the cell, so the increased amount of surface area due to the biconcave shape gives it more space to carry oxygen.
