4.
Name four tissues that do not contain lymphatic capillaries.
CNS
Splenic pulp
Bone marrow
Avascular tissues
5.

7.
Explain how lymphatic vessels are similar to veins.
They carry low pressure fluid against gravity.
They are equipped with valves.
Lymph movement is aided by skeletal muscle actions and breathing action.
8.

Drains Left and lower right (75%) of body
Drains upper right 25% of body
10.
Name the vein that each of the two collecting ducts deposit their lymph.
________Subclavian_____________________ vein
11.
Discuss the composition of interstitial fluid and lymph.
Plasma components minus proteins
12.
List the functions of lymph, noting its major function.
Absorb and transport dietary fats
Collects excess interstitial fluids and deliver back to the bloodstream
Deliver foreign particles to lymph nodes for removal and destruction (phagocytosis by
macrophages).
3
13.
Explain the forces involved in the movement of lymph.
It is similar to venous blood movement. It is aided by the action of skeletal muscle,
respiratory movement and valves in lymphatic vessels.
14.
Name the condition that occurs when lymphatic flow is obstructed. ____Edema_
15.
Discuss the structure, location, and major function of lymph nodes.
Structure: Bean shaped. Located along lymphatic pathways. Convex side receives the
afferent lymphatic vessels. The efferent vessel leaves on the concave side.
Location: Cervical, Axillary, Supratrochlear, Thoracic, Abdominal, Pelvic, Inguinal
Functions: Filter and remove debris from lymph for removal and destruction
(phagocytosis by macrophages).
4
16.
Discuss the structure, location, and major function of the spleen.
Located behind the stomach on the left side and it filters debris and worn cells from
blood.
White pulp = lymphocytes
Red pulp = red blood cells, lymphocytes and macrophages.
17.
Distinguish between the body fluids filtered by lymph nodes and those filtered
by the spleen.
Lymph nodes filter lymph
Spleen filters blood
18.
Name the cell responsible for the filtering action of the lymph node and spleen.
Macrophage
19.
Discuss the structure, location, and major function of the thymus.
Located within the mediastinum, soft bi-lobed and decreases in size in adults. The
function is to process T-cells in immunity.
5
20.
Name the hormone secreted by the thymus that causes maturation of
lymphocytes
that
have
migrated
to
other
tissues.
_______Thymosin_____________
21.
Describe what happens to the thymus as one ages. ______Shrinks___________
22.
Define the term pathogen.
Disease causing agent. Bacteria, viruses, protozoa, etc.
23.
Label the diagram below re: Lines of Defense Against Infection.
6
24.
Define the term non-specific (innate) resistance and discuss the body's seven
major mechanisms.
Non specific (innate) – general defenses, protects against many pathogens.
Mechanical Barriers: Skin & Mucous Membranes
Chemical Barriers: Enzymes, Acid, Salt, interferons, defensins, collectins, complement)
Phagocytosis
Inflammatory response
Fever
Species resistance
25.
Name the antibacterial enzyme present in tears. _______Lysozyme__________
26.
Discuss how interferons, defensins, and collectins aid in fighting infection.
Interferon – Secreted by non-infected cells in response to the presence of viruses. They
interfere with proliferation of viruses.
Defensins – destroys bacteria by punching holes in cell walls
Collectins – Protect by attaching themselves to a variety of microbes. Provide broad
protection against them.
27.
List the cardinal signs of inflammation.
Redness = rubor
Swelling = tumor
Heat = calor
Pain = dolor
7
28.
List the steps involved in the inflammatory process.
Inflammation is a tissue response to damage, injury, or infection.
Blood Vessels dilate increasing capillary permeability so blood floods area.
Chemicals released by damaged tissues attract various white blood cells to the site of
injury.
Tissue fluid leaks into area
Fibroblasts arrive
29.
Discuss the importance of phagocytosis, and indicate the origin of phagocytic
cells.
Phagocytosis – special white blood cells that destroy foreign particles from tissues and
body fluids.
Origin – Neutrophils or monocytes in the blood are called phagocytes. Those that leave
the blood through diapedesis are called macrophages.
30.
Define the term adaptive resistance/ immunity.
Specific attack on an antigen.
31.
Define the term antigen, and discuss how antigens cause immune responses to
occur.
Substance (usually a protein) that causes the formation of an antibody & reacts
specifically with that antibody causing an immune response.
8
32.
Discuss the origin and maturation of lymphocytes.
Stem cells in red bone marrow give rise to undifferentiated lymphocytes that are
released into the blood. Those that reach the thymus are processed into T-Cells; those
that are not processed by the thymus are most-likely processed in the fetal bone
marrow and are called B-Cells. The T & B cells are transported through the bloodstream
and also inhabit lymphatic organs.
33.
Discuss the process by which an immune response occurs, beginning with the
“antigen-presenting cell”.
Macrophages in the tissues receive the antigen first. They present the antigen to the Tcell, which then activates the B-Cell.
9
34.
Distinguish between T cells and B cells.
T-Cells
B-Cells
processed in the thymus
processed in fetal bone marrow
Function in cell mediated immunity
Function in antibody-mediated immunity.
35.
Distinguish between Cell-Mediated Immunity (CMI) and Antibody-Mediated (or
humoral) Immunity (AMI).

Attack antigens directly
Direct Attachment involves agglutination, precipitation, neutralization.
Activation of complement (Positive feedback mechanism) Opsonization, chemotaxis,
inflammation, lysis.
43.
Distinguish between agglutination, precipitation, neutralization, and lysis.
Agglutination: Antigens clump

Live Pathogen
Suffer disease symptoms
Artificially Acquired
Vaccine containing dead or weakened
(ACTIVE)
pathogen
Possible mild symptoms or no disease
symptoms
Naturally Acquired
IgG Antibodies that cross placenta from
(PASSIVE)
mom to fetus
Artificial Acquired
Injection of gamma globulin with ready
(PASSIVE)
made antibodies.
No immune response, short term
immunity.
47.
Explain how immediate-type allergic reactions occur and proceed.
Inherited
Causes production of high IgE ;levels
When allergens combine with IgE, this causes mast cells to burst and release histamine
causing tissue damage.
Symptoms: hives, hay fever, asthma, eczema, gastric disturbances, anaphylactic shock.
12
48.
Name the four types of transplants performed.
Isograft
Autograft
Allograft
Xenograft
49.
Discuss the major problem that occurs in autoimmune disorders, and list some
possible causes of autoimmunity.
Can’t distinguish “self” from “non-self”. Maybe caused by previous viral infection, faulty
T-Cell development, persistent fetal cells.
50.
Explain the theory of “microchimerism”, as it relates to autoimmunity (AI).
Microchimerism seen Scleroderma most likely due to persistent fetal cells. This may
explain predominance of AI in females.
