If you fall sick, clinic will do this blood test to full scan of blood sample- RBC, Hb, all types of WBC

This type of disorder, there are over 10K WBC, which indicates infections, allergies, cancer/ other diseases

This type of disorder, there are less than 5k WBC, indicates certain types of blood infections, exposure to toxins/ chemo therapy.

Prone to infection

What are the functions of Leukocytes

WBC can squeeze through the wall of blood vessels

What is it called when a WBC move from blood to tissue

What is it called when a WBC move from blood to tissue

What is released by infections or damaged tissues that attracts WBCs to it

This function of leukocytes is based on specific antigens present on plasma membrane

Antigens present on WBC that are unique for each person, used to match cells, tissues or organs for donation purpose this is called

genes present on chromosome 6 that code for HLA (human leukocyte antigens) this is called

What are the types of WBCs

This type of WBC has a lobed nucleus and granules can easily been seen in cytoplasms. Has 3 types of granules: Neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils

This type of WBC has a dented nucleus and tiny granules that are not easily visible in the cytoplasm. There are two types of granules: Monocytes and lymphocytes

What are the types of granules that Granular leukocytes has ?

This granular leukocyte makes up 60-70% of total WBC and has 2-6 lobed nucleus; pale lilac small granules in cytoplasm

This granular leukocyte makes up 2-4% of WBC, has a bilobed nucleus that is orange-red granules in cytoplasm. Has phagocytic cells for parasitic worms and enzymes to fight allergies

This granular leukocyte makes up less than 1% of WBC, has bilobed nucleus, and dark blue-black large granules in cytoplam. Releases histamine involved in allergic reactions

An abnormally low count of a type of white blood cell (neutrophils) that occurs in anemia and chemo therapies is....

First cells to reach burns and injuries in bacterial infections

What are the types of granules that agranular leukocytes has ?

This type of agranula leukocyte makes up 3-8% of total WBC and are Large cells with a large dented horse shoe shaped nucleus. They phagocytize cells and emigrate to tissues and become macrophages

This type of agranula leukocyte emigrate to tissues and become macrophages

This type of agranula leukocyte makes up 20-25 % o WBC and is smaller size (like RBC) with large nucleus and little cytoplasm. There are different types of lymphocytes and is invovled in antigen-antibody immunity against bacterial and viral infections. Also reacts to tissue transplants and cancer cells

This type of agranula leukocyte is involved in antigen-antibody immunity against bacterial and viral infections. Also reacts to tissue transplants and cancer cells

Leukocytes are formed from Leukopoiesis

Hemopoietic stem cell in Red bone marrow divide to form

Myeloid stem cells ( which is made from hemopoietic stem cell in red bone marrow) divide to form

Lymphoid stem cells ( which is made from hemopoietic stem cell in red bone marrow) divide to form

Leukemia is cancer of leukocytes

Repeated infections, excessive immature WBC are symptoms of leukocytes

What leukemia has the highest success rate in children

For a Bone Marrow Transplant, Donor and recipient MHC antigens must match

In a Bone Marrow Transplant, the patients bone marrow is destoryed by radiation to kill defective cells

How is blood grouped

This blood group is based on presence or absence of antigens A and/ B are on the membrane surface of RBC

And the corresponding antibodies A and B are present in liquid plasma

In this blood group antiboides recognize and bind to specific antigens causing clumping of cells (aggluniation)--> rupturing of erythrocytes and blockage of blood vessels causing organ damage

In ABO groups presence or absence of antigens A/B is present on

In ABO groups presence or absence of antiboides A/B is present on

What is true of blood types

How blood donation works in blood groups

What is true about universal donor and recipeint

If Rh antigen is present on RBC it is..

No Rh antibody normally in Rh+ and Rh- blood types.

Can a person with Rh- donate blood to Rh +

Can a person with Rh+ donate blood to Rh -
