Course Grading

Late Assignment PolicyLATE POLICY                                                                                          TOP

Late work will not be accepted unless there are clear and compelling extenuating circumstances. If you have extenuating circumstances that prevent you from completing course assignments/exams you must contact your instructor immediately—prior to the assignment/exam/quiz due-date unless prevented from doing so by emergency circumstances. Examples of extenuating circumstances are serious personal and/or family illness/hospitalization, death in the family, weather-related evacuation/emergencies, work emergencies, and issues related to active military assignment. Personal computer/software/internet connectivity issues and course blocks are not considered extenuating circumstances. Granting of late-work submission due to extenuating circumstances is at the discretion of the instructor and will require documentation for verification of extenuating circumstances. If late work submission is granted, the instructor will establish new due-dates and requirements without loss of course points.  

Incompletes Incompletes provide students with limited additional time to complete coursework after the term’s end.  To be considered for an incomplete, you should have completed approximately 75% of the coursework.  Please see the Kaplan University catalog for further information.  Whether or not to grant an incomplete is your instructor’s decision. The deadline for requesting an incomplete for the 1101C term is March 7, 2011. Incomplete work is due March 25, 2011.

Project Information

Your “Fantastic Voyage!” is continuing.  You are still a video reporter piloting a mini-sub that has been put through a miniaturization process making you and the sub only 8 microns long. This time, you have been swallowed by a 55 year old man eating a hamburger, french fries and a root beer.

Let’s go on a “Fantastic Voyage!”  Imagine that you are a video reporter piloting a mini-sub that has been put through a miniaturization process making you and the sub only 8 microns long! (Ever see the movie “Inner Space”?)  You have been injected into the femoral vein of a healthy female.  The alert just came out that a bacterium is invading the lower lobe of the right lung!!  You are to pilot your sub to the site of the “invasion” and do a live report on what you see.

In cases where previous assignments are allowed to be submitted for another class, it is the responsibility of the student to enhance the assignment with additional research and to also submit the original assignment for comparison purposes.•Assisting another student with reasonable knowledge that the other student intends to commit any act of academic dishonesty. This offense would include, but would not be limited to providing an assignment to another student to submit as his/her own work or allowing another student to copy answers to any test, examination or assignment

Blood CompositionBlood Composition

• Blood plasma blood minus its cells composition—water containing many

dissolved substances (for example, foods, salts, and hormones)

amount of blood—varies with a person’s size and sex; average is about 4 to 6 L (about 7% to 9% of body weight)

What is the difference between blood plasma and blood serum?

Blood CompositionBlood Composition

• Formed elements RBCs (erythrocytes) WBCs (leukocytes)

Granular leukocytes: Neutrophils,eosinophils, and basophils

Nongranular leukocytes: Lymphocytes and monocytes

Platelets or thrombocytes

Blood CompositionBlood Composition• Formed elements

Numbers RBCs: 4.5 to 5 million per mm3 of blood WBCs: 5,000 to 10,000 per mm3 of

blood Platelets: 300,000 per mm3 of blood

Formation Red bone marrow, or myeloid tissue,

forms all blood cells except some lymphocytes and monocytes, which are formed by lymphatic tissue in the lymph nodes, thymus, and spleen

Where is red bone marrow produced?

Blood CompositionBlood Composition• RBCs

Structure Disk-shaped, without nuclei

Anemia: Inability of blood to carry adequate oxygen to tissue; often caused by Inadequate RBC numbers Deficiency of hemoglobin or iron Pernicious anemia: Deficiency of the

intrinsic factor

What are some of the functions of RBCs?

Blood CompositionBlood Composition

• RBCs Hematocrit: Medical test in which a

centrifuge is used to separate whole blood into formed elements and liquid fraction Buffy coat is WBC and platelet fraction Normal RBC level is about 45% Polycythemia: Abnormally high RBC

count

What happens to RBCs during the hematocrit procedure?

What is sickle cell anemia, and how does it affect the body?

• WBCs Neutrophils and monocytes carry out

phagocytosis Lymphocytes produce antibodies (B-

lymphocytes) or directly attack foreign cells (T-lymphocytes)

Eosinophils protect against parasitic irritants that cause allergies

Basophils produce heparin, which inhibits clotting

Blood CompositionBlood Composition

What is phagocytosis?

Blood CompositionBlood Composition

Blood ClottingBlood Clotting

• Platelets and blood clotting Platelets play an essential role in blood

clotting Blood clot formation

Clotting factors released at the injury site produce prothrombin activator

Prothrombin activator and calcium convert prothrombin to thrombin

Thrombin triggers formation of fibrin, which traps RBC to form a clot

When does clotting become dangerous?

Blood ClottingBlood Clotting

Blood TypesBlood Types• ABO system

Type A blood: Type A self-antigens in RBCs; anti-B-type antibodies in plasma

Type B blood: Type B self-antigens in RBCs; anti-A-type antibodies in plasma

Type AB blood: Type A and type B self-antigens in RBCs; no anti-A or anti-B antibodies in plasma

Type O blood: No type A or type B self-antigens in RBCs; both anti-A and anti-B antibodies in plasma

What are antigens and antibodies, and how do they relate to each other?

• Rh system Rh-positive blood

Rh factor antigen present in RBCs Rh-negative blood

No Rh factor present in RBCs No anti-Rh antibodies present naturally

in plasma Anti-Rh antibodies appear in the plasma

of Rh-negative people if Rh-positive RBCs have been introduced into their bodies

Blood TypesBlood Types

Where did the term “Rh” come from?

Erythroblastosis fetalis: May occur when Rh-negative mother carries a second Rh-positive fetus; caused by mother’s Rh antibodies reacting with baby’s Rh-positive cells
