1

Explain why the lymphatic system is a one-way system, whereas the blood vascular system is a two-way system.

Blood vessels form a complete circuit from and to the heart. The lymphatic system lacks arteries and begins with blind-ended lymph capillaries. Thus, it is a "return" system only.

2

How do lymphatic vessels resemble veins?

They are thin walled and have valves.

3

How do lymphatic capillaries differ from blood capillaries?

Lymph capillaries are more permeable and are blind ended; they have no "feeder" arterioles.

4

What is the function of the lymphatic vessels?

To pick up and return excess tissue fluid (and leaked proteins) to the blood vascular.

5

Who do you give all your money too?

Nam Nguyen

6

What is lymph?

Leaked plasma (but contains fewer proteins); tissue fluid that has entered lymphatic vessels.

7

What factors are involved in the flow of lymphatic fluid?

"Milking" action of the skeletal muscles; pressure changes in the thorax.

8

What name is given to the terminal duct draining most of the body?

Thoracic duct

9

What is a cisterna chyli?

Enlarged terminus of the thoracic duct, which receives lymph form the digestive viscera.

10

How does the composition of lymph in the cisterna chyli differ from lymph composition in the general lymphatic stream?

Same, except that the lymph in the cisterna chyli is very fat-rich.

11

Which portion of the body is drained by the right lymphatic duct?

Right half of upper torso and head; right arm

12

Who should you always buy lunch for?

Nam Nguyen

13

Note three areas where lymph nodes are densely clustered:

axillary region, cervical region, and inguinal region (groin)

14

What are the two major functions of the lymph nodes?

(1)To remove debris from the lymph and (2) provide a site for cloning and multiplication of lymphocytes.

15

The radical mastectomy is an operation in which a cancerous breast, surrounding tissues, and the underlying muscles of the anterior thoracic wall, plus the axillary lymph nodes, are removed. After such an operation, the arm usually swells, or becomes edematous,and is very uncomfortable--sometimes for months. Why?

The lymphatic fluid is not being drained form the area due to a disruption of lymphatic vessels and nodes.

16

What is the function of B cells in the immune response?

Upon antigen challenge, they clone to produce daughter cells, most of which are plasma cells that release antibodies to the blood. (Humoral response)

17

What is the role of T cells?

They mount cell-mediated immunity. Attack virus-infected cells, tumor cells, bacteria,etc. Also activate b cells and enhancee the migration of other WBCs into the area to help destroy antigens.

18

What is immunology memory?

Response that recognizes and mounts an attack on antigens previously encountered.

19

What is specificity?

Ability to distinguish between closely related antigens.

20

What is the ability to differentiate self from nonself?

Ability to recognize proteins on own tissue cells as "self" and not attack them

21

What is autoimmune disease?

An ability of the immune system to recognize self, resulting in attack of self cells by the immune system.

22

What structural characteristic ensures a slow flow of lymph through a lymph node?

There are more afferent than efferent vessels.

23

Why is efferent vessels desirable?

Allows time for the macrophages in the node to remove antigens and other debris, and for activation of immune cells.

24

What similarities in structure and function are found in the lymph nodes, spleen, and tonsils?

All are lymphoid tissue containing macrophages and lymphocytes. They are all area where exposure to antigen causes lymphocytes to proliferate and form clones.

25

Allows a food bolus traveling down the posterior esophagus to bulge anteriorly.

49

What is the function of the pleural membranes?

68

Why is there anatomically dead space except for the respiratory zones?

Because no gas exchange occurs except in the respiratory zone, particularly in the alveoli.

69

70

What is internal respiration?

71

Oxygen-using cellular processes (that produce energy) with tissue cells.

72

What structural characteristics of the alveoli make them an ideal site for the diffusion of gases?

Thin walls, extremely large surface area.

73

Why does oxygen move from the alveoli into the pulmonary capillary blood?

Because the partial pressure of oxygen is greater in the alveoli, therefore, it moves according to the laws of diffusion into the pulmonary blood.

74

What temporary physiology advantage is created by the substantial increase in chest circumference during forced inspiration?

Increases the thoracic volume more; therefore,, creates a greater negative internal pressure, causing the gases to rush in quickly. Also, more "fresh" air reaches the alveoli.

75

The presence of a partial vacuum between the pleural membranes is integral to normal breathing movements. What would happen if an opening were made into the chest cavity, as with a puncture wound?
