    ___ leave in 20 hours, transform into macrophages, and live for several years

    monocytes

  • 81

    ___ provide long-term immunity (decades), being continuously recycled from blood to tissue fluid to lymph and back to the blood

    lymphocytes

  • 82

    A group of cancers that affect WBCs in which these cells proliferate without control

    leukemia

  • 83

    An inherited disease in which stem cells of WBCs lack and enzyme that allows them to fight infection

    severe combined immunodeficiency disease

  • 84

    Hormone ___ initiates megakaryotype formation

    thrombopoietin

  • 85

    Steps of hematostasis

    vascular spasms; platelet plug formation; fibrin mesh formation

  • 86

    • Stabilizes clot • Actin and myosin in platelets contract with 30-60 minutes • Contracting pulls on fibrin strands, squeezing serum from clot • Draws ruptured blood vessel edges together

    clot retraction

  • 87

    • Vessel is healing as clot retraction occurs • Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) stimulates division of smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts to rebuild blood vessel wall • Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) stimulates endothelial cells to multiply and restore endothelial lining

    vessel repair

  • 88

    Undesirable clot formation

    thromboembolic disorders

  • 89

    Abnormalities that prevent normal clot formation

    bleeding disorders

  • 90

    Clot that develops and persists in unbroken blood vessel; may block circulation leading to tissue death

    thrombus

  • 91

    Thrombus freely floating in bloodstream

    embolus

  • 92

    Embolus obstructing a vessel (eg., pulmonary and cerebral emboli)

    embolism

  • 93

    Risk factors: Atherosclerosis, inflammation, slowly flowing blood or blood stasis from immobility

    thromboembolic conditions
