Q

Lymphatic system

General

A

Provides an open pathway for the return of fluids and proteins from interstitial spaces and fats absorbed by from the intestine to general circulation

Also involved in immunity and resistance to disease and removal and destruction of dead RBC’S

Q

Protection

A

Blood clots which protects against excessive blood loss.

WBC’s protect against disease by carrying on phagocytosis along with several anti-bodies

15
Q

Functions of blood

A

Interacts with all cells and all of our systems
Main transport fluid - nutrient/waste exchange
Chemical messengers travel in blood to get to target cells
Picks up hormones and drop off at target
Picks up oxygen - drops off carbon dioxide
Picks up nutrients from digestive system
Picks up dietary fats from lymphatic system
Drops off liquid waste to kidneys, nutrients and oxygen to cells

16
Q

Lymphatic system

Structures

A

Lymph nodes
Lymph vessels
Lymph fluid
Other lymphatic structures

17
Q

Lymphatic system

A

Maintains fluid balance in the internal environment of the body and protects the body through the process of immunity

Lymphatic vessels act as “drains” to collect excess tissue fluid and return it to the venous blood just before it reaches the heart

18
Q

Lymph

Described

A

Clear watery-appearing fluid found in lymphatic vessels

19
Q

Fluid flow

A

Sequence of fluid flow:

Plasma in capillaries to
Interstitial spaces as interstitial fluid to
Lymphatic capillaries as lymph to
Lymphatic vessels as lymph to
Lymphatic ducts as lymph to
Subclavian vein as plasma
20
Q

Cardiovascular system

Parts

A

3 parts

Heart - muscular pumping device
Blood
Vessels - arteries, veins, and capillaries

21
Q

Cardiovascular system function

A

To maintain homeostasis, which depends on the continuous and controlled movement of blood through the thousands of miles of capillaries that permeate every tissue and reach every cell in the body
