5. Measuring with a ruler using the metric system. The image below shows examples of blood that has been spun in a centrifuge to separate the red blood cells, white blood cells, and plasma. The percentage of blood which is composed of red blood cells is called the hematocrit (HCT). It is an important lab value because it indicates the blood's ability to carry oxygen to working tissues. Plasma: - Water, proteins, nutrients, hormones, etc. Buffy coat: - White blood cells, platelets Hematocrit: - Red blood cells Normal blood Total: RBC: In) bobbon om HCT: Normal Blood: 37% -47% hematocrit 42%-52% hematocrit with Solutiolations 1M 2.0 bas make euch o Anemia: Depressed hematocrit % HOMM Using your ruler measure the total amount of blood and the total amount of RBCs. Enter values in the table below. Use these measurements to calculate the %RBC (Hematocrit) of each of the samples above by taking the length of the RBC divided by the total length. Anemia Total: low RBC: 191Bw ins HCT: DER 1910 day Polycythemia: Elevated hematocrit % 202 203 Polycythemia Total: RBC: HCT:
