Detailed explanation-1: -Where does hematopoiesis occur? The most common site of blood cell production is the spongy tissue inside of your bones called bone marrow. Hematopoiesis that occurs in your bone marrow is called medullary hematopoiesis. Blood cells get made in your bone marrow and released into your bloodstream.
Detailed explanation-2: -After birth, and during early childhood, hematopoiesis occurs in the red marrow of the bone. With age, hematopoiesis becomes restricted to the skull, sternum, ribs, vertebrae, and pelvis. Yellow marrow, comprised of fat cells, replaces the red marrow and limits its potential for hematopoiesis.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hematopoiesis produces new red blood cells in bone marrow. Specifically, hematopoiesis refers to the production of new blood cells and erythropoiesis refers to the production of new red blood cells. When red blood cells are decreased, the oxygen level also decreases in the body.
Detailed explanation-4: -Their job is to transport oxygen to the body’s tissues in exchange for carbon dioxide, which they carry to the lungs to be expelled. Red blood cells are formed in the red bone marrow of bones. Stem cells in the red bone marrow are called hemocytoblasts.
Detailed explanation-5: -Hematopoiesis is responsible for the formation of all blood cells from hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in the bone marrow (BM). It is a highly regulated process, in order to adapt its cellular output to changing body requirements.
