Heart
This is the contraction phase of the heart
What is Systole
This makes up 55% of blood and is made of 90% water
What is Plasma?
These circulation transports blood from the right ventricle, to the lungs, and back then back to the heart
What is Pulmonary circulation/vessels?
The lack of resistance
What is susceptibility?
The fluid in the lymphatic vessels that is similar to plasma
What is Lymph?
This structure pumps oxygenated blood to the tissues of the body
What is the Left Ventricle
Tiny Biconcave discs that transport oxygen to the cells of the body
What is Erythrocytes (or RBC's)
This circulation carries blood from the left ventricle, to the tissues in all parts of the body, and then back to the heart
What is Systemic Circulation/Vessels?
the ability of the body to counteract the effects of pathogens and other harmful substance
What is Resistance
these are Characterized by clusters of lymphocytes (type of WBC) and other cells and include the lymph nodes, tonsils, spleen, and thymus.
What are lymphatic organs?
This structure receive deoxygenated blood from superior/inferior vena cava
What is the Right Atrium
This is the most common and abundant leukocyte
What is a Neutrophil?
In Pulmonary circulation, this vessel is what carries deoxygenated blood away from the heart
What is an artery?
immunity that is the result of T cell action
What is cell mediated immunity?
The Small bean shaped structures located along lymphatic vessels
What are lymph nodes?
This heart structure initiates impulses 70 to 80 times per minute and is often known as the pacemaker of the heart
What is the Sinoatrial (SA) Node
this is what a monocytes becomes when it leaves the blood and enters tissue
What is a Macrophage?
This allows the exchange of oxygen and other nutrients between blood and tissue cells
What are capillaries?
immunity that is the result of B cell action and the production of antibodies also called humoral immunity
What is Antibody mediated immunity
This Lymphatic organ is Located in the upper left quadrant of the abdominal cavity, Just under diaphragm and behind the stomach
What is the spleen?
This is the middle layer of the Heart wall, which contains cardiac muscle
What is Myocardium
This is what the Production of formed elements is called
What is hematopoiesis?
This is the middle layer of the vein, containing smooth muscle
What is the Tunica Media
t-cells that target specific antigens in order to destroy the pathogen
What are cytotoxic t-cells?
A lymphatic Organ located under the mucous membrane of the nose, mouth and throat
What are Tonsils?
