Immunity |
ability of the body to protect itself from damage and pathogens |
|
pathogens |
microbes (bacteria and viruses) that have potential to produce diseases |
|
innate immunity adaptive immunity |
2 types of immunity |
|
innate immunity |
not specific present at birth |
|
adaptive immunity |
specific response to specific microbes; T cells and B cells |
|
skin, fever, mucuous membranes, inflammation |
e.g. of innate immunity |
|
specific antigens viruses bacteria |
e.g. adaptive immunity |
|
Lymph - fluid that flows throughthe lymphatic systemLymphatic vessels - similar to veinsLymphatic OrgansRed Bone MarrowLymphatic Tissue - specialized form of connective tissue that contains large amount of lymphocytes |
Lymphatic System |
|
Blood Plasma is filtered from the capillaries and turns to interstitial fluid which becomes the lymph
|
How do you produce Lymph |
|
less proteins than blood plasma kasi di makapermeate ibang proteins sa walls ng capillaries |
Interstitial fluid |
|
fluid can enter due to valve like appearance but fluid can not exit |
Lymphatic capillary |
|
->Drains excess interstitial fluid - for balance of fluids and prevention of edema ->Transport dietary lipids - vitamins that are lipid soluble ADEK ->Carries out immune responses - if may microbes/antigen/pathogen mag response para maeliminate yun |
3 primary functions of Lymphatic System |
|
if nakapass through na yung interstitial fluid sa lymphatic vessels |
Only called lymph |
|
20 liters of fluid filter from blood into tissue spaces 17 liters daan sa arteriole end ng blood capillaries saka babalik sa blood through reabsorption 3 liters dadaan pa sa lymphatic vessels bago bumalik sa blood |
In each day |
|
enlarges when you have a sore throat removed in tonsillectomy |
Palatine tonsils |
|
superior to the heart midline turns into fatty tissue after puberty as we grow older we lose our thymus |
Thymus |
|
thoracic duct drains the lymph from the rest of the body while ang right lymphatic ay upper right lang |
Thoracic duct and Right Lymphatic Duct |
|
lymphocytes are created here |
Red Bone Marrow |
|
similar to your veins return lost plasma proteins and plasma to the bloodstream |
Lymphatic vessels |
|
closed at one end located in spaces between cells functions as valve water go in cant go out pressure is high nag pupush yung tubig papasok nagfoform ng lymphatic vessels |
lymphatic capillaries |
|
similar in structure to veins pero smaller may lymph nodes drains to Right Lymphatic Duct or Thoracic duct |
Lymphatic vessels |
|
magfilter ng lymph pag nag mature may T Cells and B Cells |
Lymph Nodes |
