Lymph Lymphatic Vessels Lymphatic tissue |
|
|
What is the function of the lymphatic System? |
To drain into interstitial fluid that develops on tissue.
Transport dietary lipid and lipid soluble vitamin from the GI tract.
Facilitating the immune system most important |
|
|
What are the three stages of inflammation? Increase blood flow |
(1)Mobilization bring more blood cells to the area.
(2)Emigration, containment and destruction leave through the capillaries and attack bacteria.
(3)Tissue repair platelets can start to repair damage tissue |
|
|
How is fever produce? |
An increase in body temperature to kill bacteria not high enough to kill your cells. Speed up metabolism. Harm bacteria. |
|
|
Why is it necessary to have a fever? |
To promote interferons Pyrogens and inflammation Fast tissue repair |
|
|
What is an antigens? |
Substances on a pathogen that provoke such an immune response [usually foreign] marker on the outside of cell |
|
|
What is an allergy? |
Hypersensitive Type 1 immediate Type 2 antibody dependent Type 3 immune complex Type 4 delayed |
|
|
Body fail to distinguish self from non-self |
Autoimmune Disease |
|
|

Immunodeficiency Disease |
|
|
What is an Antibodies? |
Match antigenic determinants that stimulates their production. |
|
|
What is the the flow of lymphatic fluid? |
From the capillaries into vessels, passes through lympnodes then into lymphatic trunk then either to thoracic ducts or the right lymphatic duct then into subclavian venous blood. |
|
|
What area of the body feeds the right lymphatic duct? |
Right jugular from Right head and neck Right subclavian arm from right upper limb, Right bronchmediastinal from right thorax chest Rt subclavian vein
|
|
|
Thoracic feeder |
Get lymph from left jugular left subclavian and left bronchmediastinal Lt subclavian vein |
|
|

Cell-mediated |
|
|
Produce Antibody-mediated that attached to a cell |
Humoral response |
|
|
What is activate immunity? |

|
|
Why is the lymphatic System important? |
It facilities the immune system |
|
|
What are the six type of Lymphocytes cells? |
Natural Killer cells attack bacteria B cells secrete antibodies T cells cell to cell contact Macrophages phagocytize cells Dendritic cells alert immune system Reticular cells non immune system cell All immune system cells |
|
|
What are the five lymphatic organs? |
Bone Marrow create Rbc and B cells Thymus t cells mature Lymph nodes flirtation of fluid Spleen old go to die wbc and rbc Tonsils trap bacteria wbc will destroy bacteria. |
|
|
What is nonspecific immunity? |
That immunity does target any one specific pathogen. |
|
|
What is specific immunity? |
B cell and T cell for specific disease Lock and key Fit on one antigens on one pathogens |
