The main outline of lecture is based on selected chapters of human hematology and comparative hematology of individual vertebrate classes. General principles of blood physiology considering differences among various classes of vertebrates are discussed. The lecture comprise descriptions of particular blood components, their functions, and their ontogenetic and phylogenetic development with context to their role in general blood physiological and pathophysiological functions in vertebrates.
