Essay Questions
Immune System
1. The immune system has two lines of the defense the
and
defense systems. In the first line of defense
and
are the first barriers to foreign invaders. The second line of
defense includes antimicrobial proteins,
,
, and
. One of the most
important defenses is the
,
response. Its four signs include
,
, and
. One internal defense of the innate immune system is
phagocytosis. First the phagocyte must be mobilized; this occurs in four steps
,
,
and
,
. Phagocytosis begins when a
adheres to a
. The phagocyte then forms a pseudopod that
engulfs the particle and forms a
. This will fuse with a
forming a phagolysosome. The particles in the phagolysosome
will be
. Finally, they will undergo
to
remove the waste. The third line of defense is the adaptive immune system which has
, is
, and is
. The adaptive
response is executed through the action of
marrow and
that mature in bone
that mature in the thymus. They must gain
and
before they are
ready to fight infections. One branch of the adaptive immune system is the
response which leads to the production of antibodies.
Antibodies combine with antigens to form an
. They
can also defend against antigens by four processes
,
,
, and
. When stimulated a B cell will form
with the same antigen-specific receptors. Most of these cells will become
which will mark antigens for destruction. The rest of the cells
will become
. These provide a way for the body to react
if it encounters the same antigen in the future. Active humoral
immunity can come from an

A second branch of the adaptive immune system is the
T helper cells come from

MHC proteins signal a foreign antigen, while
MHC proteins self.
Renal System
1. Kidneys function as the major
organ. They regulate blood pH,
volume, and composition. The kidney can regulate blood glucose levels through
. There are three layers of protective tissue around the
kidneys. The
which anchors the kidney in place, the
which acts as a cushion, and the
which provides protection from infection. The structural unit of the kidney is the
. If this structure is contained in the cortex it is called a
. If it extends far into the medulla it is called a
. Nephrons are made up of a
, which is the glomerulus and its capsule, and a
. The renal
tubule contains the visceral layer and a
. This includes foot
processes known as
and filtration
continues to include the
,
. The renal tubule
,
, and
. The formation of urine occurs in three steps. In the first step,
, blood is filtered through the filtration membrane.
Glomerular
cells degrade large molecules that make it through the
filter. The rate of filtration can be controlled via two intrinsic mechanisms. In the
mechanism glomerular filtration rate is controlled by constriction or
dilation of afferent arterioles. In the
mechanism GFR is
controlled by macula dense cells releasing a
compound in
response to high levels of salt. Under extreme stress, extrinsic controls take over and the
sympathetic nervous system releases
of
. This triggers the release
to activate angiotensinogen to angiotensin I and ultimately to
angiotensin II. The second step of urine formation is
.
More reabsorption takes place in the
. In the DCT and collecting ducts
reabsorption is hormonally controlled. Parathyroid hormone controls the absorption of
, antidiuretic hormone controls
and anti natriuretic hormone control
formation is
absorption, and aldosterone
reabsorption. The final step in urine
