MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -An immature cell that can develop into all types of blood cells, including white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. Hematopoietic stem cells are found in the peripheral blood and the bone marrow. Also called blood stem cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -A myeloid cell is a type of blood cell that originates in the bone marrow. As a myeloid cell matures into an adult blood cell, it will take on a specific role as a basophil, eosinophil, erythrocyte, macrophage, monocyte, neutrophil, or platelet.

Detailed explanation-3: -The three classes of formed elements are the erythrocytes (red blood cells), leukocytes (white blood cells), and the thrombocytes (platelets).

Detailed explanation-4: -Stem cells in the red bone marrow are called hemocytoblasts. They give rise to all of the formed elements in blood. If a stem cell commits to becoming a cell called a proerythroblast, it will develop into a new red blood cell. The formation of a red blood cell takes about 2 days.

Detailed explanation-5: -Myeloid Stem Cells, also called Common Myeloid Progenitor Cells, give rise to all the other formed elements, including the erythrocytes; megakaryocytes that produce platelets; and a myeloblast lineage that gives rise to monocytes and three forms of granular leukocytes: neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils.
