Drag each label to the appropriate position to indicate which step of hemostasis it describes. coagulation | -also known as clotting
-includes intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms
-includes a vast enzymatic cascade of proteins produced by the liver |
Drag each label to the appropriate position to indicate which step of hemostasis it describes. platelet plug formation | -involves the disruption of prostacyclin
-involves endothelial collagen exposure |
Drag each label to the appropriate position to indicate which step of hemostasis it describes. vascular spasm | -the first stage of hemostasis |
Plasma is composed of about ___________ % water. | 92 |
The first stage of hemostasis is ___________, where the damaged blood vessel constricts suddenly. | vascular spasm |
As blood volume decreases, blood pressure ____________ . If greater than ____________ of the blood volume is lost from the blood vessels, the ____________ division of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is activated, bringing about ____________ vasoconstriction of blood vessels, increased heart rate, and force of heart contraction in an attempt to maintain blood ____________ . These processes are effective in maintaining blood pressure until approximately ____________ of the blood is lost. Blood loss greater than this amount results in insufficient blood ____________ within the blood vessels, and blood pressure decreases to levels unable to support life. | decreases, 10%, sympathetic, increased, pressure, 40%, volume |
Select all the characteristics of a reticulocyte. | -It is synthesizing hemoglobin.
-It may be found circulating in the blood.
-It develops from a normoblast. |
