Question
Answer
What is large ONLY early in life; atrophies after puberty & is the site of maturation of T-cells?   Thymus  
🗑
What is located around the entrance to the throat?   Tonsils  
🗑
End in blind pockets(pouches) are called what?   crypts  
🗑
Where is M.A.L.T (mucosa associated lymphoid tissue) Located?   In the walls of the small intestines(peyer's patches), appendix & walls of bronchi  
🗑
How is lymph transported?   Skeletal muscle pump, respiratory pump,valves(prevent backflow), pulsation of near arteries  
🗑
What are Chemicals in the Immune system?   Complement, Inferons, Perforin & Antibodies  
🗑
This chemical of the immune system has a group of at least 20 plasma proteins; plays a role in specific and Non specific defenses & is a chemotactic agent that inhances leukocytosis   Complement  
🗑
This chemical of the Immune system has small proteins that are released by virus-infected cells to uninfected cells; these are taken up & incorporated and will Interfere with Viral replication   Interferons  
🗑
What chemical of the immune system has cytotoxic T's that kill directly contains Interleukin 1(machrophages) & Interleukin 2 (help T's)   Perforin  
🗑
What is Cytotoxic T's main weapon?   a Cytolytic protein  
🗑
Where are cytolytic proteins found?   in the granules of CD8 Tcells and NK cells  
🗑
Do antibodies kill directly?   No  
🗑
Which cells provide humoral immunity?   B-cells  
🗑
What are the mechanisms of antibody action?   Agglutination,Precipitation,Complement fixation, & neutralization  
🗑
What are antibodies made of?   Proteins, 4 amino acid chains, 2 heavy & 2 Light  
🗑
Antibodies contain all of the following binding sites..   Antigen binding site, complement binding site, macrophage bing site  
🗑
What are the mechanisms involved in Autoregulation in kidneys?   Myogenic mechanism, tubuloglomerular feedback, & Renin-angiotesin mechanism  
🗑
In Autoregulation of kidneys, which mechanism has smooth mucsle contractions when stretched?   Myogenic mechanism  
🗑
In autoregulation of kidneys, which mechanism involves increase construction of afferent arterioles (restricts blood flow to nephron) when b.p increases?   Myogenic mechanism  
🗑
In autoregulation, which mechanism involves dilation of afferent arterioles(glomerules gets more blood)when b.p decreases?   Myogenic mechanism  
🗑
In autoregulation, which mechanism acts on angiotensiogen & increases the release of aldosterone?   Renin-angiotensin mechanism  
🗑
In Tubuloglomerular feedback, what occurs in the DCT?   macula densa cells act as chemoreceptors  
🗑
In Tubuloglomerular feedback, what occurs in teh afferent arterioles?   Juxtaglomerular cells act as baroreceptors which detect b.p  
🗑
In Tubuloglomerular feedback, fast filtrate increases pressure,Na+&Cl- and releases what?   Macula Densa cells release vasocontrictors  
🗑
In tubulogomerular feedback, slow filtrate decrease pressure, Na+ & Cl- and release what?   Macula Densa cells release vaso dilators  
🗑
In Renin-angiotensin mechanism, what is the adrenal cortex hormone?   aldosterone  
🗑
In renin-angiotensin mechanism, what does aldosterone do?   affects the DCT, allows reclamation of Na+ from filtrate & increases blood volume which increases b.p  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
