Chapter 5 - Circulatory Systems and Immunology

TermDefinition
translocation circulation in plants
stem primary organ of transport in plants
vascular bundles run up and down stem
fibrovascular bundle at center of stem, contains xylem, phloem, and cambium cells
xylem thick-walled cells inside vascular bundle that carry water and minerals up the plant; provides support; includes vessel cells and tracheids
Sapwood outer layer of xylem
Transpiration Pull As water evaporates from the leaves of plants, a vacuum is created that pulls water up the stem
Capillary Action any liquid in a thin tube will rise due to the surface tension of the liquid and interactions btwn liquid and tube
Root Pressure water entering the root hairs exerts a pressure that pushes water up stem
Phloem thin walled cells on outside of vascular bundle that transports nutrients down the stem; includes sieve tube cells and companion cells
Cambium undifferentiated cells btwn phloem and xylem that turn into either phloem or xylem
Order of Layer of root/stem Epidermis (or bark), cortex, phloem, cambium, xylem, pith
Root absorbs materials through root hairs and anchors the plant
Circulation in Protozoans this invertebrate transports nutrients by simple diffusion within the cell
Circulation: Cnidarians no specialized circulatory system for these invertebrates bcuz all cells are in contact with internal or external environment
Circulation: Arthropods these invertebrates have open circulatory systems; blood in contact with body tissues; blood flows through dorsal vessel and into sinuses
Circulation: Annelids closed circulatory system; blood is moved from dorsal vessel, 5 aortic loops, to ventral vessel
erythrocytes red blood cells; from bone marrow; can bind to 4 O2 molecules; only live for 120 days
hemoglobin in erythrocytes; binds to O2 and CO2
Importance of CO2 in the body reactant for bicarbonate buffering system; Rxn: CO2 + H2O --> H2CO3 --> HCO3- + H+
Human Circulatory System Deoxygenated blood to right atrium by pulmonary vein, to right ventrical, to pulmonary arteries, to lungs to be oxygenated. Oxygenated blood goes to heart again by pulmonary vein to left atrium, left ventrical, to aorta to arteries to capillaries
Adult vs Fetus Circulation Fetal: circulation bypasses the lungs cuz they arent fully developed so no blood to right ventricle
Foramen Ovale hole btwn right and left atrium so no blood to right ventricle and to lungs
Ductus Arteriosus connection btwn aorta and pulmonary atery so no blood enters lungs
Ductus Venosus oxygenated blood from umbilical vein to inferior vena cava so blood can bypass liver and go str8 to fetus brain
Right side of heart pumps deoxygenated blood to pulmonary circulation (lungs)
Left side of heart pumps oxygenated blood to systemic circulation (body)
Arteries transport blood away from heart
Veins transport blood into heart
Capillaries thin vessels across which nutrients, gases, and wastes diffuse
Artery-Vein-Capillary Blood vessels in order from thickest to thinnest
Lymphatic system sends lymph to cardiovascular system keeping fluid levels in body constant
lymph nodes swellings with leukocytes that filter the lymph removing pathogens
plasma liquid portion of blood
cellular components of blood leukocytes, erythrocytes, platelets
Leukocytes white blood cells; phagocytize pathogens or mature to macrophages in tissues
Lymphocytes involved in immune system; produces B cells (antibodies) or cytolysis of infected T cells
Platelets cell fragments that are involved in clot formation during tissue injury
Blood Clotting Process platelets come into contact with exposed collagen, they form platelet plug, release thromboplastin which activates thrombin from prothrombin, and thrombin converts fibrinogen to fibrin then clot formation
Humoral Immunity responsible for production of antibodies after exposure to antigen
Antibodies/Immunoglobulins come from B cells, proteins that recognize and bind to specific antigens and trigger immune response
Active Immunity production of antibodies during immune response (vaccination); takes weeks
Passive Immunity transfer of antibodies from one person to another (mother breast feeding child); immediate but short-lived
Gamma Globulin part of blood with hella antibodies
Cell-Mediated Immunity immune defense using T cells to attack pathogens; macrophages, NK cells, and cytokines used; plays role in transplant rejection
Nonspecific Defense Mechanisms Skin, mucus, macrophages, inflammatory response (histamine/fever)
Interferons proteins that interfere with viral replication to help prevent spread of virus
Blood type AB universal recipient; neither A or B antibodies
Blood type O universal donor; has no surface antigens so wnt elicit an immune response
Rh Factor antigen that may be on surface of red blood cells; important for pregnancy
Erythroblastosis Fetalis severe anemia of a second Rh+ fetus in a Rh- mother since antibodies from first Rh+ baby attach RBC of second fetus

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
