vascular resistance is related to all of the following except
osmolarity of interstitial fluid
blood pressure increases with which of the following
increased peripheral resistance
blood flow to a tissue will increase if the
level of CO2 at the tissue increases
which of the following factors would decrease peripheral resistance
vasodilation
blood colloid osmotic pressure depends mainly on
concentration of plasma proteins
most of the lymph returns to the venous circulation
thoracic duct
it is helpful to treat a fever because
fever makes you feel bad
stem cells that will form B cells and NK cells are found in the
bone marrow
which is a vasodialator?
nitric oxide
which of the following statements is false?
net filtration pressure is zero along the length of the capillary
characteristics of specific defenses include
memory, tolerance, specificity
the cells that secrete antibodies are
plasma cells
when an antigen is bound to a class I MHC protein it can stimulate a _______cell
cytotoxic T
MHC Class II proteins are found on
lymphocytes and antigen presenting cells
B cells are primarily activated by
helper T cells
most of oxygen transported by the blood is
bound to hemoglobin
CO2 is transported by the blood as
solute in the plasma, bicarbonate ions, carbaminohemoglobin
decreasing the pH of the blood will cause oxygen binding to hemoglobin to
decrease
increasing temperature will cause oxygen binding to hemoglobin to
decrease
in general, lymphocytes
spend most of their time in lymphoid tissue, are nucleated, have relatively long life spans
non specific defenses include all of the following except
antibodies
the movement of leukocytes to the source of certain chemicals is called
chemotaxis
an inflammatory response is triggered when
mast cells release histamine and heparin
tolerance is a state of
unresponsiveness to antigens
the binding of an antibody can result in
neutralization of the antigen, complement activation and opsinization, agglutination or precitation
IgE
immunoglobulins that attach to mast cells for allergy response
IgA
antibodies present in secretions
IgG
main circulating antibodies
IgM
first immunoglobulin produced in response to infection
artificial passive immunity
gamma globulin injection
artificial active immunity
vaccination
natural passive immunity
placenta transfer
natural active immunity
getting ill
