anaphylactic shock
incorrect
3.
IgA
incorrect
4.
B lymphocytes (B cells)
incorrect
5.
follicles
incorrect
6.
lymph nodes
incorrect
7.
systemic
incorrect
8.
immune system
incorrect
9.
thoracic duct
incorrect
10.
mucosa
incorrect
11.
lymph capillaries
incorrect
12.
immunology
incorrect
13.
capsule
incorrect
14.
memory or memory cells
incorrect
15.
autografts
incorrect
16.
afferent lymphatic vessels
incorrect
17.
lymphoid organs
incorrect
18.
antibodies
incorrect
19.
acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)
incorrect
20.
immediate hypersensitivity (acute)
A.
immune response is remembered and mounts even stronger attacks on previously encountered pathogens
B.
flood of histamine bind to mast cells, blood vessels become dilated and leaky, largely to blame for symptoms of allergy
C.
immunoglobulins (IG's); the gamma globulin part of blood proteins
D.
most devastating of the acquired immunodeficiences, cripples the immune system by interefering with the activity of helper T cells
E.
weave between tissue cells and blood capillaries in connective tissues, absorbing leaked fluid, have minivalves; larger particles are allowed to enter
F.
occurs when the allergen directly enters the blood and circulates rapidly thru the body
G.
the collection of lymphocytes found in the lymph node cortex
H.
proteins that diffuse to nearby cells and bind to their membrane receptors, stimulating the synthesis of proteins that interere with virus ability to multiply
I.
lymph enters the convex side of a lymph node through these
J.
study of immunity
K.
the detour that lymph takes where it is cleansed of debris, examined by cells of the immune system; help protect the body by removing foreign material like bacteria and tumor cells, produce lymphocytes; kidney shaped, less than 1 inch
L.
immunity is not restricted to initial infection site
M.
receives lymph from the rest of the body
N.
produce antibodies overseeing humoral immunity; form in the bone marrow
O.
hydorchloric acid and protein-digesting enzymes kill pathogens; sticky mucus traps microorganisms that enter digestive and respiratory passages
P.
monomer in plasma, dimer in secretions such as saliva, tears, intestinal juice, milk; bathes and protects mucosal surfaces from pathogens
Q.
each node is surrounded by a fibrous capsule
R.
innate and adaptive defense systems
S.
tissue grafts transplanted from one site to another in the same person
T.
tonsils, thymus, spleen, peyer's patches; reticular connective tissue; only the lymph node filters lymph
Type the Question that corresponds to the displayed Answer.
incorrect
21.
IgM, IgA, IgD, IgG, IgE
incorrect
22.
enzyme that destroys bacteria
incorrect
23.
two semi-independent parts: lymphatic vessels and lymphoid tissues and organs; low pressure system; vessels contract rhythmically, pumping the lymph along
incorrect
24.
macrophage or neutrophil engulf a foreign particle; flowing cytoplasmic extensions bind to the particle and pull it inside, closing it in vacuole, fused with lysosome and contents are broken down or digested
incorrect
25.
fluid that is not transfered back to blood vascular system, impairs the ability of tissue cells to exchanged interstitial fluid with blood
incorrect
26.
provoke an immune response and bind with products of that response (antibodies or sensitized lymphocytes)
incorrect
27.
20 proteins circulating in the blood, inactive until they fix to foreign cells, become activiated and fight foreign cells
incorrect
28.
the process of the "T cell" recognizing self and activating correct response
incorrect
29.
clumping of the foreign cells (as in blood transfusions of incorrect blood type)
incorrect
30.
clone formation of the antigen
