Long bones; Short bones; Flat bones; Irregular bones; Sesamoid bones; Red bone marrow

femur, humerus, tibia, fibula, ulna, radius

Found within bones, marrow is responsible for producing new blood cells. This process is known as hematopoiesis

small, round bones are found in joints that are held in place by tendons.

have epiphysis, diaphysis, and medullary cavities that containing yellow bone marrow.

muscular system is made up of

skeletal muscle; Smooth muscle; Cardiac muscle; Tendons

The lymphatic system includes the

Lymph nodes; Lymph nodules; Thymus; Spleen; Interstitial fluid

Largest lymphoid organ, located in the upper-left quadrant of the abdomen. It is home to macrophages that filter the blood.

Located posterior to the sternum. The thymus is large in children and atrophies (shrinks) after adolescence. It is responsible for the production and maturation of T-cells.

The Lymph nodules are

Masses of lymphoid tissue comprised of macrophages and lymphocytes. Lymph nodules are not encapsulated like lymph nodes.

Small, glandular structures concentrated in the neck, axilla, and groin that produces and store lymphocytes. Lymph nodes are home to macrophages that filter lymph.

Foreign substance within the body

Protein the body creates in response to specific antigens

Type of lymphocyte that can recognize antigens and responds by turning into plasma cells; these plasma cells then create antibodies against specific antigens

Type of lymphocyte that can recognize antigens and attaches to them to attack the invading cells directly

Engulf and destroy pathogens that have been coagulated with antibodies
