    lymphocytes develop in red bone marrow and mature in the thymus; the other formed elements develop in red bone marrow 3. What is erythropoiesis? Which factors speed up and slow down erythropoiesis? Erythropoiesis is the process by which red blood cells (erythrocytes) are produced. If you lose a lot of blood‚ erythropoiesis will speed up; anemia can cause erythropoiesis to slow down. 4. Explain what would happen if a person with type B blood were given a transfusion of type O blood. Nothing type

    cells‚ platelets‚ basophils‚ monocytes‚ neutrophils‚ and eosinophils. 3)What is erythropoiesis? Which factors speed up and slow down erythropoiesis? Erythropoiesis is a process in which red blood cells are produced. It is stimulated by decreased O2 in circulation‚ which is detected by the kidneys which then secrete the hormone erythropoietin‚ increased level of physical activity can also cause an increase in erythropoiesis. It slows down when there is sufficient oxygen carrying capacity of the blood

Which factors speed up and slow down erythropoiesis? Erythropoiesis is the production of red blood cells - Erythropoiesis is speeded up when oxygen delivery to the kidneys falls‚ and slows down when there is sufficient oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood. 4. Explain what would happen if a person with

The specific production of RBCs that starts in the red bone marrow with a precursor cell called a proerythroblast. The lack of oxygen or blood flow can slow erythropoiesis. 4.

    cells are involved I our immune systems. White blood cells can leave the blood to enter into other body tissues. When monocytes do this they are referred to as macrophages in those tissues. The precise production of RBC’s is termed erythropoiesis. Erythropoiesis starts in the red bone

    rise to lymphocytes. The B cell lymphocytes are began and completed in the red bone marrow and the T cell lymphocytes begin in the red bone marrow‚ but they mature in the thymus (Jenkins‚ Kemnitz‚ & Tortora‚ 2010). 3.) What is erythropoiesis? Erythropoiesis is the production of red blood cells or erythrocytes. It starts in the red bone marrow with a proerythroblast. The proerythroblast divides many times and produces cells that begin to make hemoglobin. A cell near the end of the development

    inflammation‚ the levels of transferrin in the blood decrease as the body tries to minimize the amount of iron accessible to pathogens and sequesters iron within macrophages. Also‚ most iron-bound transferrin is delivered to the bone marrow for erythropoiesis or tissues for storage‚ leaving the bloodstream. On the contrary in IDA‚ transferrin levels in the blood increase because the body is trying to accumulate iron by increasing the level of transferrin.

Other formed elements are also developed in red bone marrow. Erythropoiesis is development of red blood cells‚ Erythropoiesis is speeded up when oxygen that is being transferred to the kidneys slows down when there isn’t enough sufficient oxygen being carried to the blood.
