Elliotwiz1: seriously you just pissed me off for real, i hate insults.... I never went into a website to check this, i'm typing from the piece of information i know, please lets respect ourselves, you may try to check the web to make sure everything to post is correct, but i don't mind getting answers wrong....It's a part of learning, don't say that again. You're the one surfing the web for questions and answers not me.

it's ok bro. Even if u went dia, d question now is; HOW DID HE MEET YOU THERE

Oghos1: U opened dis page n den copied n pasted d 1st paragraph. U failed 2 read it down.

http://www.ouhsc.edu/platelets/platelets/platelets%20intro.html

Kindly read platelet structure in dat particular page. If ua still not convinced, itz ok. When ua taught again in d university u will remember me. Dahzall

well read, here is my observation!
Platelet Structure
Platelets are actually not true cells but
merely circulating fragments of cells. But even
though platelets are merely cell fragments, they
contain many structures that are critical to stop
bleeding. They contain proteins on their surface
that allow them to stick to breaks in the blood
vessel wall and also to stick to each other. They
contain granules that can secrete other proteins
required for creating a firm plug to seal blood
vessel breaks. Also platelets contain proteins
similar to muscle proteins that allow them to
change shape when they become sticky.
The pictures above show normal platelets
on the left. They are shaped like a plate, therefore
their name. When platelets are stimulated by a
break in the blood vessel wall they change shape
as shown in the other three pictures. They
become round and extend long filaments. They
may even look like an octopus, with long tentacles
reaching out to make contact with the broken
blood vessel wall or with other platelets. With
these long filaments, platelets then form a plug to
seal the broken blood vessel.

Elliotwiz1: i didn't know this so i'll ask more on it, no offence please..... "They're tiny irregular cell fragments which are non-nucleaued" if They're not living cells then why did they talk about them not being nucleated?? "They're formed in large bone narrow cells" just like the white blood cells..... Is it that They're formed as non-living?? And another thing, Why're they classified along with red blood cells and while blood cells, as blood cells if They're not cells?

it's matured Erythrocytes that do not have nucleus. It entails me that they are beggated frm dia. That doesn't mean dat they are not cells since they can perform a particular function [blood clotting]

Correct dia

STORM2:
Damn.......dude just google it up and read it on ur own time na...I did and its true...they're cell fragments...
#chillaxing#

Are cell fragments not cells? Since they perform a particular function. To start with, DEFINE what a cell is.

Swagalord18: can someone explain the effect of CFCs(chloro-flouro-carbons), on the ozone layer, ...and how the ozone layer makes up for it

O3 + Cl --------> ClO + O2. Dats all.

You can't and I guess no one here could convince me dat platelets are not cell. I think you are very wrong!

Oghos1: WRONG. Nice 'googling' btw. Go back 2 dat article, scroll down a lil bit n read PLATELET PRODUCTION. Lol

I want u to tell me

Oghos1: Platelets are not actually cells? True or false.

If true - why?
If false- why?

FALSE


Platelets are the smallest of the three major types
of blood cells.
Platelets are only about 20% of the diameter of
red blood cells, the most numerous cell of the
blood. The normal platelet count is
150,000-350,000 per microliter of blood, but
since platelets are so small, they make up just a
tiny fraction of the blood volume. The principal
function of platelets is to prevent bleeding, I.e. Bloodclotting!

b03liberty: I think it should be 'said' to complement the verb tried. But wot of other scenario likes, the bible says, he died for our sin'... kind of confused.

Leave the bible. It is assumed that what the bible says is a word from God to mankind from the time of creation to the end of time! What then?

Everybody has gone through something that has changed them in a way that they could never go back to the person they once were.

it's well. God is in control.

tee_yford: YEAH thanks IKEMSINACHI....abeg whats the range of jamb score that ll @ least give me hope for this department

I do not know, let's just be praying and at the time be getting ready for the pume that's all. What's your jamb score?

tee_yford: omg omg chai,i never knew the form as been sold oooooo......++++please is there any medicine and surgery aspirant on this trend? thanx mr DIESEL....PLZ DO U KNOW OF ANY OTHER SKUL WHO'S REMEDIAL FORM IS STILL ON SALE?

It's well. You are welcome!

tee_yford: hello people, am new Here...- I ve found nairaland very educative and informative so I decided to sign up …I ll really appreciate if u We can help each oda for better …I applied Abu zaria and am soooo tired of waiting, I chose medicine and surgery and It's ma first tym …plz is Abu 's remedial form still on sale??

Gud to see my fellow DOCTOR here! U re welcome dear! Add me on 2go via infinity111.

It's well.

My brother plz help me out. I've been searching for this for a very long time. Pls help me.

1.the conversion of iron two to iron three wich is known as rusting. It takes place in the presence of oxygen and water. It is acceleratd by the presence of carbon (iv) oxide in the atmosphere.
3.heat is the total internal energy of a body while temperature is the average kinetic energy of a body.
5.it is OXYTOCIN. It is produced by the pituitary gland,it also controls the flow of milk from the mammary gland.
U tried sha
xpeting ur questn 2

CHIEF, are we not saying the same thing here? You like discrediting people. Hmmm! Except NO5, I knew I would fail it. But for the rest, my answers are accurate. I thought I had explained all these for you via 2go. Molecular motion what is it? It is a kinetic energy. Is RUST not an irreversibe reaction in which the free energy is negative? △ G = △ H - T△ S. I don't have the strength to type. I would detailed u on 2go. Let's see on 2go by 9pm today. REVENGE things tonight........man utd Vs Liverpool. 7:45 pm on ma mind.

Judee99: I wont say peterphd is rite or wrong, its his opinion, bt if we ar quick to give glory to God nd ar quick to question Him in tryin tymes( which 80% of us do) den we ar doing exactly as mr peter just said. Anoda fin is dat we might b direspectin God by givin him glory in some cases. Imagine a yahoo guy payin tithe n givin testimonies or a first class dude dat cheatd al d way tru n yet giv Glory to God. Pls lets be reasonable, God is not mocked, wateva ur sow, u will.......

nice one. May God have mercy on us...Amen!

I) The lobe of the ear. II) the epiglottis and iii) parts of the larynx.

shemdoe: yes it is virgoHillz...in fact there is alot of foreign african students especially from zambia...just go throught its website you will find lots of infos

Nancy Edward: I entered into Nnamdi Azikiwe University Unizik Admission list with the help of this man called Professor Jacob Ebka he helped me actually i have been looking for admission into Nnamdi Azikiwe University Unizik for 3 years those good for nothing lecturers took her money without giving her the admission but last year we found this man Professor Imahe this time all the list was almost out but still yet he was able to help me and my junor sister and our name was out we are in school now.Thanks a lot professor Jacob Ebka for your help and if you want any help the only person i think that have the power is Professor Jacob Ebka call him on 08159118388 and don't call any other person apart from professor Jacob Ebka because they will eat your money and you can't do them any thing.,
