The metaphases epiphyseal are the mature bones were the diaphysis joins the epiphyseal in the growth plate while the bone is still growing. 3. The main part of the bone is called the diaphysisit it is in the midsection of a long bone. It typically contains bone marrow. 4.

Bone marrow is the spongy tissue inside the bone where blood cells are made. They are produced by stem cells in the long bones. According to Ignatavicius and Workman (2013)‚ “Leukemia accounts for 2% of all new cases of cancers and 4 % of all deaths from cancer” (as cited in American

Ever since 1968‚ the bone marrow transplant has been the most common and best treatment for SCID; according to research‚ “A bone marrow transplant involves taking cells that are normally present in bone marrow (the

It’s a component of several iron-containing proteins called Hemoproteins‚ including Hemoglobin‚ (protein that carries oxygen to the blood). Some types of Porphyria are inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern which means one copy of the gene in each cell is mutated‚ or the main cause of Porphyria is from the production of Heme. The production of Heme takes place in the liver‚ bone marrow and blood stream. It involves eight different

Sarcomas are characterized by cells that are located in bone‚ cartilage‚ fat‚ connective tissue‚ muscle‚ and other supportive tissues. 3.

Pluri means several and these type of stem cells have the ability to turn into many different types of cells. For formed elements pluripotent cells reproduce in the bone marrow and become two different types of cells: myeloid stem cells and lymphoid stem cells. While myeloid stem cells complete development in the red bone marrow and create the majority of formed elements in the blood‚ lymphoid
