RBC’s come together in form little clusters that cannot pass through the blood vessels. The reaction occurs from the complement system when the person receiving the blood has a rare protein on their blood cells. So antibodies to this certain antigen are not present until after the patient is exposed to the blood. This is why all blood is typed‚ crossed‚ and then cross-matched with the potential recipients’ blood. 4. Our lymphatic systems have several jobs‚ from body tissues it removes extra fluids

heart is an organ that acts as a ‘’pump’’ because it pumps blood continuously that is rich in a high concentration of oxygen throughout the organs of the human body such as the brain. Blood is carried through tube like structures called blood vessels such as the artery and the vein. The arteries carry blood from the heart at high pressure which contains a high concentration of oxygen and nutrients to supply the organs. Veins carry blood at low pressure to the heart which contains a high concentration

When a baby is developing maternal blood supplies the oxygen‚ blood‚ and nutrients to the fetus and takes away the waste. The exchange of maternal blood and fetal blood to the fetus happens through the placental membrane and the umbilical cord vessels. The umbilical vein goes into the body through the umbilical ring‚ and half of the blood running though it goes to the liver and the rest goes to the ductus venous. It joins with the inferior vena cava. Blood goes to the fetal right atrium from the

The arteries job is to transport blood away from the heart‚ usually only transporting highly oxygenated blood‚ having just left the lungs and on its way to the body’s tissues Arterioles • There are smaller branches of the arteries called arterioles‚ they connect to the capillaries. • Arterioles are the main

1.6 Blood Pressure Blood pressure is the main factor in sustaining blood flow through tissues. The force applied to the arterial walls as the heart pumps blood throughout the circulatory system defines the physiological meaning of blood pressure (Bojanov‚ 2009). Blood pressure is determined by the force‚ heartbeat rate‚ and resistance to blood flow through vessels. Cyclic changes in arterial blood pressure are partially attributed to the rhythmic contractions in the left ventricle (Iaizzo‚ 2009)
