Chapter 21 Outline
• General Composition and Functions of
Blood
• Blood Plasma
• Formed Elements in the Blood
• Hemopoiesis: Production of Formed
Elements
Introduction
Blood serves many functions. Some examples are:
• Transportation of oxygen and carbon dioxide as
well as nutrients and waste products
• Regulation of body temperature, pH, and fluid
volume
• Protection by mounting an immune response
and the production of antibodies
Composition of Blood
Figure 21.1
Composition of Blood
Upon separation by centrifugation, blood
has three factions:
1. Erythrocytes—represent ~ 44% of total
blood volume
2. Buffy coat—represents about 1% of total
blood volume
3. Plasma—represents ~ 55% of total blood
volume

Blood Plasma
Formed Elements
• The hematocrit is the % of the volume of
all formed elements in one’s blood
• It varies in females from 38%–46% and
between 42%–56% in males
Erythrocytes
• Also referred to as red blood cells or
RBCs, but this is a misnomer as mature
RBCs lack nuclei and other organelles
Figure 21.4
Erythrocytes
• Relatively small (7.5 μm in diameter)
• Unique biconcave shape
• As they pass through small blood vessels,
they line up in single file termed a rouleau
Hemoglobin in Erythrocytes
•
•
•
Every erythrocyte contains 280 million
molecules of a red-pigmented protein called
hemoglobin
Hemoglobin is capable of reversibly
transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide in the
blood
Hemoglobin consists of four globin protein
molecules:
1.
2.
Two alpha (α) chains
Two beta (ß) chains
Molecular Structure of Hemoglobin
Figure 21.5
Hemoglobin
• Each of the four globins possesses a
nonprotein heme group containing an iron
(Fe2+) molecule.
• Each hemoglobin molecule can bind a
combination of four oxygen/carbon dioxide
molecules.

Leukocytes
• Unlike erythrocytes, leukocytes possess a
nucleus and organelles.
• They help initiate an immune response and
defend the body against pathogens.
• They are 1.5 to 3 times larger than erythrocytes.
• They are capable of leaving the blood vessels,
diapedesis, and entering a tissue.
• Leukocytes are attracted to a site of infection by
molecules from damaged cells or invading
pathogens. This attraction is called chemotaxis.
Classification of Leukocytes
• The five types of leukocytes are divided
into two classes (granulocytes and
agranulocytes) based on the presence or
absence of visible organelles termed
granules.

Approximate %
Neutrophils
Nucleus is multilobed (as many as five lobes)
Cytoplasm contains neutral or pale, distinct
granules (when stained)
Phagocytize pathogens, especially bacteria
Release enzymes that target pathogens
50–70% of total leukocytes
Eosinophils
Nucleus is bilobed
Phagocytize antigen-antibody complexes and
allergens
1–4% of total leukocytes
Cytoplasm contains reddish or pink-orange
granules (when stained)
Basophils
Nucleus is bilobed
Cytoplasm contains deep blue-violet granules
(when stained)
Release chemical mediators to destroy parasitic
worms
Release histamine (vasodilator) and heparin
(anticoagulant) during inflammatory or allergic
reactions
0.5–1% of total leukocytes
AGRANULOCYTES
Lymphocytes
Round or slightly indented nucleus (fills the
cell in smaller lymphocytes)
Nucleus is usually darkly stained
Thin rim of cytoplasm surrounds nucleus
Attack pathogens and abnormal/infected cells
Coordinate immune cell activity
Produce antibodies
20–40% of total leukocytes
Monocytes
Kidney-shaped or C-shaped nucleus
Nucleus is generally pale staining
Abundant cytoplasm around nucleus
Can exit blood vessels and become
macrophages Phagocytize pathogens,
cellular debris, dead cells
2–8% of total leukocytes
Platelets
• Irregular membrane-enclosed cellular fragments
that represent shed cytoplasm from cells in the
red bone marrow called megakaryocytes
• Megakaryocytes are about 15× larger than
erythrocytes
• Platelets are about ¼ the size of erythrocytes
• Platelets are involved in the clotting of blood

Erythropoiesis
• Erythropoiesis is the process of
erythrocyte production.
• About 3 million erythrocytes are produced
per second.
• During maturation all organelles within the
erythrocyte, including the nucleus,
degenerate leaving the erythrocyte with
nothing more than a “bag of hemoglobin.”
