Question
Answer
Name functions of Lymphatic System   Immunity &Return excess fluid to interstitial space & blood stream  
🗑
Name organs of Lymphatic System   Lymph Vessels,Lymph Nodes,Thymus,Spleen,Tonsils,Peyers Patch,  
🗑
Lymph Vessels   One way system which Lymph flows only to the heart, elaborate system of drainage that collect excess fluid & return to bloodstream  
🗑
Lymph Nodes   "filters lymph"clusters along lymph vessels, embedded in connective tissue,act as lymph filters,help activate immune system  
🗑
Thymus   Bi-lobed found in inferior of neck,primary function early in life, important in fetus & infants, dies off after puberty  
🗑
Spleen   "filter blood";bloodrich size of fist; removes old RBCs from blood supply & removes, stores & produces white blood cell lymphocytes. These stored lymphocytes produce antibodies and assist in removing microbes and other debris from the blood supply.  
🗑
Largest Lymph organ   Spleen  
🗑
Tonsils   Simplest lymphoid organs, form a ring around Pharynx,protect the body from harmful germs & contaminants & trap bacteria and antigens and allow the body to produce antibodies against them.  
🗑
Peyers Patch   in mucosal lining of the ileum, which is the last section of the small intestine. interact with antigens found in the intestine to produce antibodies.  
🗑
Important forces/organs to transport lymph   Lymoph Vessels, Lymph Nodes,Tonsils,Peyers Patch & Spleen  
🗑
"Lymph movement occurs______   despite low pressure due to peristalsis - smooth muscle and skeletal activity (everyday activity and motion of the body).  
🗑
very permeable because they are not pressurized the lymph fluid can drain easily from the tissue into the___________?   Lymph Capillaries  
🗑
The largest lymphatic vessels are called__________?   ducts  
🗑
which of the following is not a normal component of Lymph?   RBC's  
🗑
The tonsils located at the base of the tongue are called______?   Lingual Tonsils  
🗑
Select correct statement abt Lymphocytes   B-cells produce plasma cells; which secrete antibodies in the blood  
🗑
Lymph collecting or pooling from the lower extremities would first pool in the ______b4 moving up.   Cisterna Chyli  
🗑
Particularly large clusters of lymph nodes occur in all the following locations except____   lower extremities  
🗑
The appendix, tonsils & Peyers Patch are collectively called___   MALT  
🗑
Highly specialized lymph capillaries called_____are present in the villi in the intestinal mucosa   lacteals  
🗑
The thoracic duct of lymph system empties into the______?   Left subclavian vein  
🗑
Lymph nodes have more______lymphatic vessels than______lymphatic vessels.   afferent, effent  
🗑
Tonsils have blind-sided structure called_________?   Crypts  
🗑
Lymphatic_____ are formed from the union of the largest collecting vessels.   trunks  
🗑
Receives Lymph from most of the body?   thoracic duct  
🗑
Protein containing fluid w/in the lymphatic vessels   Lymoh

stores blood platelets   Spleen  
🗑
small organs intimately associated with lymphatic vessels   lymph nodes  
🗑
Isolated clusters of Lymph follicles found in the wall of small intestines   Peyers patches  
🗑
Name 3 areas where lymph nodes are densely clustered   axillary, cervical & inguinal  
🗑
what name of terminal duct draining most of the body?   thoracic duct  
🗑
smallest Leukocyte   lymohocytes  
🗑
largest Leukocyte   Monocyte  
🗑
whole blood is composed of plasma &____?   formed elements  
🗑
