ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Healthy bone marrow releases blood cells into the bloodstream when they are mature and when required. Without bone marrow, our bodies could not produce the white cells we need to fight infection, the red blood cells we need to carry oxygen, and the platelets we need to stop bleeding.

Detailed explanation-2: -Red bone marrow contains blood stem cells that can become red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bone marrow makes the components of your blood that you need to survive. Bone marrow produces red blood cells that carry oxygen, white blood cells that prevent infection and platelets that control bleeding. The absence of bone marrow can be fatal since it’s an essential part of your body.

Detailed explanation-4: -When the bone marrow’s hematopoietic stem cells are damaged, the body cannot make enough red, white, or platelet blood cells. Insufficient red blood cell production causes anemia, which has low energy as its main symptom. Decreased white blood cells raise the risk of infections.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are two types of bone marrow. Red bone marrow is involved in the production of blood cells, while yellow marrow is important for fat storage. As you age, yellow bone marrow replaces red bone marrow.
