Study Notes

Functions of Blood

  • Distribution functions involve delivering oxygen from the lungs and nutrients from the digestive tract to all body cells.
  • Metabolic waste products are transported from cells to elimination sites.
  • Carbon dioxide is transported to the lungs for elimination.
  • Nitrogenous wastes are transported to the kidneys for elimination in urine.
  • Hormones are transported from endocrine organs to their target sites.

Regulation Functions

  • Blood maintains appropriate body temperature by absorbing and distributing heat throughout the body, including to the skin surface to encourage heat loss.
  • Blood maintains normal pH in body tissues.
  • Blood acts as a reservoir for the body's alkaline reserve of bicarbonate atoms.
  • Blood proteins act as buffers to prevent excessive or abrupt changes in blood pH.
  • Adequate fluid volume is maintained in the circulation system.

Protection Functions

  • Platelets and plasma proteins initiate clot formation, preventing blood loss.
  • Antibodies, complement proteins, and white blood cells defend the body against bacteria, preventing infection.

Erythrocytes (Red Blood Cells)

  • Erythrocytes have structural characteristics including a small size of about 7.5 um
  • Erythrocytes are biconcave discs with depressed centers.
  • The biconcave shape is maintained by a network of protein.
  • Spectrin-deformable net allows RBCs to twist, turn, and become cup-shaped to pass through smaller capillaries.
