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 |
