cardiovascular testing. I would like you to list at least three tests
that can be utilized to test the health of the cardiovascular system,
one of which must involve calculating cardiac output. Describe
how the tests are performed, what information we can gain from
the tests and any limitations to the tests.
Situational task. The patient has a significant decrease in blood hemoglobin. No blood loss was observed. Diet and normalization of nutrition did not affect the increase in hemoglobin. What could be the cause of this phenomenon?
the SA node.

- Taking a cellular census. Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell (WBC) in the human body that play a role in the immune system. Information about blood: A person of average size has 5L of blood. Blood contains ~1% WBC’s and ~45% red blood cells (RBC’s) by volume. WBC’s consist of ~60% neutrophils. The density of blood is 1060 kg/m3 and the density of plasma (blood without any cells) is 1025 kg/m3. How many neutrophils are in a typical human, given that the diameter of a neutrophil is 12mm?
