Haematopoietic stem cells Science Learning Hub Biology Diagrams Figure 2 | Hematopoietic System of Bone Marrow | 5 This figure illustrates the organization of the hematopoietic system within the bone marrow. Hematopoiesis is the process by which all blood cells are produced from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs).
Hematopoiesis is the process of creating a wide variety of blood and bone marrow cells, namely erythrocytes, platelets, granulocytes, lymphocytes, and monocytes. This process begins with multipotent hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) which have the capability of dividing into either a multipotent progenitor cell or to self-renew. Progenitor cells are then able to divide into increasing specialized
Haematopoietic system Biology Diagrams
The hematopoietic system is the set of organs and tissues in which the formed elements of the blood are formed, differentiated, recycled and destroyed. That is, it encompasses the sites where they originate, mature and exert their functional action. This chapter reviews the anatomy and physiology of the hematopoietic system with a focus on the bone marrow to provide a basis for understanding the repercussions of hematologic abnormalities. Hematopoiesis is the production of all of the cellular components of blood and blood plasma. It occurs within the hematopoietic system, which includes organs and tissues such as the bone marrow
The haematopoietic system (spelled hematopoietic system in American English) is the system in the body involved in the creation of the cells of blood.

All cellular
Structure and function of the hematopoietic organs Biology Diagrams
Hematopoiesis is the process by which the body produces new blood cells. It occurs in the bone marrow. Blood is a vital component of the human body, responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, and waste products. But have you ever wondered where these blood cells come from? Enter hematopoiesis, the remarkable process of blood cell formation. Occurring primarily in the bone marrow 1 Introduction The hematopoietic system is comprised of all blood-forming tissues and circulating blood cells, and is one of the largest organs in the body. Its primary function is hematopoiesis, the continuous production of highly specialized mature circulating blood cells responsible for respiratory (hemoglobin in erythrocytes), immune (leukocytes), and hemostatic (thrombocytes/platelets
