WBC Count
"Never Let Mom Eat Beans" and "60, 30, 6, 3, 1"
In Brief:
White blood cells, or leukocytes, are classified into two main groups: granulocytes and nongranulocytes (also known as agranulocytes).
Neutrophils 60%
Lymphocytes 30%
Monocytes 6%
Eosinophils 3%
Basophils 1%
Lymphocytes 30%
Monocytes 6%
Eosinophils 3%
Basophils 1%
In Brief:
White blood cells, or leukocytes, are classified into two main groups: granulocytes and nongranulocytes (also known as agranulocytes).
- The granulocytes, which include neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils, have granules in their cell cytoplasm. Neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils also have a multilobed nucleus. As a result they are also called polymorphonuclear leukocytes or "polys." The nuclei of neutrophils also appear to be segmented, so they may also be called segmented neutrophils or "segs."
- The nongranuloctye white blood cells, lymphocytes and monocytes, do not have granules and have nonlobular nuclei. They are sometimes referred to as mononuclear leukocytes.

Location of Taste Buds
Cross sectional shape of the top of the bud tells their distribution.
Vallate: has a shallow 'V' at the top, so has a 'V' distribution at the back of the tongue.
Fungiform: top is round so it is towards the round end of the tongue.
Note vallate is also sometimes called circumvallate
In brief about Papillae
The majority of taste buds on the tongue sit on raised protrusions of the tongue surface called papillae. There are four types of papillae present in the human tongue:
Fungiform papillae - as the name suggests, these are slightly mushroom-shaped if looked at in longitudinal section. These are present mostly at the apex (tip) of the tongue, as well as at the sides. Innervated by facial nerve.

Oxygen-haemoglobin dissociation curve: Effect of shifts
Oxygen-haemoglobin dissociation curve: Effect of shifts
"L-L-L" & "R-R"
Left shift: causes Loading of O2 into Hb ( Eg. At the Lungs)
Right shift: causes Release of O2 from Hb.
Left shift of the oxygen dissociation curve denotes Hb's increased affinity for oxygen (as in lungs) and right shift is a sign of decreased affinity.
