BASIC INFORMATION
Name the functions of the lymphatic system
What is: filter lymph, initiate immune response and returning all capillary filtrate to circulation
LYMPHATIC CAPILLARIES EMPTY INTO _____
What is: Lymphatic vessels or pre-collectors
NETWORK OF CAPILLARIES + LARGE NETWORK OF TUBES LOCATED THROUGHOUT THE BODY
Filtrate that includes fluid, proteins, long-chain lipids, cells and other substances is called this.
What is: obligatory load
This primary lymphoid tissues creates lymphocytes which then differentiate and either stay to mature, or migrate to the Thymus to mature and replicate.
What is: Red bone marrow
When a T cell recognizes a pathogen, this type of immune response is initiated.
What is: Cell-mediated immunity (CMI)
DEFENDS BODY AGAINST _______
WHAT IS DISEASES?
Lymph nodes empty into these vessels
What are: Lymphatic trunks
Lymphatic vessels transport fluid ______ from the heart/
What is: towards
MALT STANDS FOR
WHAT IS MUCOSA-ASSOCIATD LYMPHOID TISSUE
This is the site of most immune responses in the body.
What is: Secondary lymphoid tissues (tonsils, nodes, spleen Peyer's patches and MALT)
This marker tells the immune system that a cell is a pathogen.
What is: Antigen
This percentage of fluid is filtered through the lymphatic system
What is: 10% of the cardiovascular system fluid
LYMPHATIC TRUNKS EMPTY INTO
WHAT IS LYMPHATIC COLLECTICING DUCTS
What is: Angion
MALT is associated with which other body systems?
What is: Digestive, Respiratory and Reproductive
These two types of barriers are non-specific immune defenses.
What is: Physical (skin, mucous membranes) and Chemical (acids, bases, ions)
When you are exposed to a pathogen and build immunity, this is referred to as.
What is: Naturally acquired active immunity
TRANSPORTS EXCESS _____ AWAY FROM THE INTERSTITIAL SPACES + RETURNS IT TO THE BLOODSTREAM
WHAT IS FLUID
All lymphatic fluid flows into these.
What are:Subclavian veins
The end to end arrangement of pre-collectors in the lymphatic capillary bed are called this.
What is: anastomosis
This organ stores lymphocytes and filters foreign particles in the blood
What is: Spleen
If a pathogen has passed Interferons, Complement proteins, Transferrins and Antimicrobial peptides, this is the body's next line of defense.
What is: phagocytes and Natural Killer Cells
When you receive a booster shot to strengthen your body's response to a pathogen, this is referred to as what type of immunity?
What is: Artificially acquired active immunity
ABSORBS ____ FROM THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
What are: lipids
Specialized lymphatic capillaries that absorb fats.
What are Lacteals (FATS)
This tissue helps move lymphatic fluid but is NOT present in pre-collectors.
What is: smooth muscle
These tissues/organs are small filtering stations that trap and destroy foreign particles bbia phagocytes or lymphocytes.
What is: Lymph nodes
When a B cell recognizes a pathogen, this type of immunity is activated.
What is: Specific Immune response via memory B cells
This healing theory involves multiple parts of our emotional and physical body.
What is: Psychoneuroimmunology (PNI)
