Medical Conditions - Bone Marrow Function

Bone marrow is a tissue present inside bones. It is of two types, red bone marrow and yellow bone marrow. They contain two types of stem cells, which are mesenchymal and hematopoietic stem cells. Bone marrow produces white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets from the stem cells. They respond to infections by producing an increased number of white blood cells, and when there is heavy bleeding, platelets are produced in increased amounts.
