Bones might seem rock-solid, but they're actually quite porous inside. Most of the large bones of your skeleton have a hollow core filled with soft bone marrow. Marrow's most essential elements are blood stem cells and for patients with advanced blood ca
Most of the large bones of your skeleton have a hollow core filled with soft bone marrow. Marrow's most essential elements are blood stem cells and for patients with advanced blood cancers like leukemia and lymphoma, the best chance for a cure is often a bone marrow transplant. How does ...
All blood cells are produced in the bone marrow. As children, most of our bones produce blood. As we age this gradually diminishes to just the bones of the spine (vertebrae), breastbone (sternum), ribs, pelvis and small parts of the upper arm and leg. Bone marrow that actively produces...

Bone marrow produces new blood cells, both red and white. In the case of red blood cells the cells are fully formed in the marrow and then enter the bloodstream. In the case of some white blood cells, the cells mature elsewhere. The marrow produces all blood cells from stem cells. They...
Where are red blood cells broken down? If your bone marrow is producing an elevated number of red blood cells, what happens to your hematocrit? Explain your answer. How does the environment shape our motor neurons throughout our life span?

You’re looking at a bone marrow smear, and you can differentiate between some of the myeloid cells (blasts have a high nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio; segmented neutrophils are all mature with their multilobed nuceli; metamyelocytes look kinda like mature neutrophils only with a more horseshoe-shaped...
How does the structure of hemoglobin allow it to combine with oxygen? If your bone marrow is producing an elevated number of red blood cells, what happens to your hematocrit? Explain your answer. How would you describe the size, color, shape, and concentration of Erythrocytes, Leukocytes, and...
