How many layers is the plasma membrane?
2
What are the 2 functions of antibodies?
Neutralizes the germ or flags it for macrophages to come and eat it
WBCs, Platelets, RBCs, Plasma
Name all of the antibodies
IgG, IgA, IgM, IgE, IgD
Difference in function between muscular and skeletal system
Muscular - Movement and postural support
Skeletal - Supports the structure and protects organs
Name the organelle which makes protein
Ribosomes
Immune cell that is your first responder
Neutrophils
What part of blood carries nutrients and hormones
Plasma
Which antibody provides long term protection and can cross the placenta?
Urinary
What does the endoplasmic reticulum do?
Protein and lipid synthesis and transport
Name the 4 MALT tissues
Adenoids, Tonsils, Peyer's patches, lymph nodes,
What are your 'smart soldiers', that include both T and B cells and provide long term protection
Lymphocytes
Which antibody is the first antibody made when your body fights a new infection. It is very large and good at clumping germs together.
IgM
What are 2 functions of the Lymphatic/Immune System?
Defends against infection
Returns tissue fluid to the blood
Transports fats
Name the organelles responsible for packaging and shipping, waste breakdown, storage
Golgi Apparatus, lysosomes, vacuoles
What is the difference between active and passive immunity
Active - make your own antibodies
Passive - borrow antibodies
Function of platelets (hint: why are they an immune cell)
Clotting; also release chemicals that starts the inflammation process to call immune cells
Which 3 antibodies look like a Y?
IgG, IgE, IgD
Name the 4 types of tissues and where they are located
Nervous - brain, spinal cord, nerves
Connective - blood, space between organs
Muscle - muscles everywhere! digestive system, cardiac
Epithelial - skin, lines organs
Name 2 functions of transmembrane proteins
identification,
absorption of nutrients, communications with other cells, and release of
hormones
Name the 4 main organs of the immune system AND their function
Skin - protective barrier, coagulation cascade
Thymus - teaches T cells, teaches self from non-self
Bone Marrow - hemopoiesis
Spleen - blood filtration, iron metabolism, backup hemopoiesis, reserve of lymphocytes and macrophages
Name all 5 immune cells
Neutrophils, lymphocytes, macrophages, platelets, plasma cells
Name the function of IgE
Protects against parasites, but is most famous for
causing allergic reactions (like hay fever or asthma).
