Lymphatic

        Help!  

Question
Answer
lymph capillaries converge to form _______ which converge to form ____   lymphatics vessels; lymphatic trunk  
🗑
lymphatic trunk converge to form _____   2 collecting ducts  
🗑
right collecting duct is drained from   right arm, right thorax, neck and head  
🗑
right collecting duct drains into   right subclavian vein  
🗑
thoracic collecting is bigger because   it drains the rest of the body  
🗑
thoracic collecting duct drains into   left subclavian vein  
🗑
lymph nodules   collection of lymphocytes and macrophages; prevalent in gastro tract, resp repro, urinary tracts  
🗑
peyer patch   cluster of nodules in the small intstine  
🗑
primary lymphatic organs   red bone marrow and thymus cuz they form and mature T and B lymphocyte  
🗑
secondary lymphatic organs   spleen, tonsils, lymph node  
🗑
most abundat lymph organ   lymph node  
🗑
lymph node function   filters the lymph and activates immune response  
🗑
why is the lymph node considered bottle neck   several afferent enter and 1-3 effernt exits  
🗑
first line of defense against infection   nonspecific skin (external barrier)  
🗑
second line of defense   non spececific, leukocytes, macrophage, fever, antimicrob bacteria  
🗑
third line of defense   immune system; leaves a memory of pathogen  
🗑
interferon   anti mic protein that alert neighboring cells of infection to prevent them from being infected  
🗑
specificity immunity   immunity targeting one pathogen  
🗑
memory   reexposure to same pathogen cuz body to react quickly  
🗑
cell mediated immunity   lymphocytes atack n destroy foreign cells/ infected cells  
🗑
humoral (antibody mediated) immunity   antibodies  
🗑
nat active immunity   poduction of self antibodies/ t cells  
🗑
artific active immunity   production of self antibody as a result of vaccine  
🗑
nat passive immun   temp immunity from acquiring antibodies from another person (fetus n mother)  
🗑
artific passive immun   termp immunity acquired fom serum with antibodies from another person  
🗑
t cells are formed in _______ and mature in into functional t cells in the _______   red bone marrow, thymus  
🗑
b cells remain in _________ to mature then sent to the other lymph organs   red bone marrow  
🗑
cellular immunity activates ______   t lymphocyes  
🗑
role of helper t cells   coordinates humoral and cell mediated -  
🗑
viral protein antigens attach to ________ that causes Tc cells to respons   MHC I  
🗑
foreign antigens that attach to ______ causes helper T cells to respond   MHC II  
🗑
Tc cells role   attack and kill cells  
🗑
Humoral immunity   antibodies release to bind to antigens uses B lymphocytes  
🗑
CD4   helper t cells attracted to MHCII  
🗑
CD8   cytotoxic t cell attracted to MHCI  
🗑
