Anatomy 2 Exam 2 Flashcards
formed from tissue fluid; originates in lymph capallaries; sluggardish
Lymph (spring like)
Lymph capillaries and lymph vessels
a. maintain proper tissue fluid balance
b. remove other waste products of the body
c. form body’s basic defense system (phagocytasis, antibodies)

Lymphoid tissue
a. Tonsils: b. spleen: c. Thymus: d. Lymph nodes:
3 pairs of lymphoid tissue include adenoids which protects opening between mouth cavity property and oropharynx.
Tonsils:
a. Adenoids b. Tonsils c. Haranginial
largest mass of lymphoid tissue in human body; helps liver recycle red blood cells
spleen:
filters for lymph strategically placed throughout body
Lymph nodes:
Lymph nodes:
1. axillary: 2. cervical: 3. inguinal: 4. Mesenteric:
Lymph nodes:
1. axillary: 2. cervical: 3. inguinal: 4. Mesenteric:
largest & most active during infancy; located at base of neck; influence lymphocytes coming out of person bone marrow to produce t-cells
Thymus:
located in neck region; lymph originated from head & neck ie: Hodgkins
cervical:
located in armpit region; filter lymph originated from upper extremities and chest region to detect malignancy & breast cancer
axillary:
intesting; filter lymph from intestional tract ie: small & large intestine
Mesenteric:
located in groin region; filter lymph originated from lower extremities; where bubonic plaque is present
inguinal:
cisterna chyli; formed by lymph; waxy milky substances formed by the union of digestive fats with lymph
Chyle:
Note: chyle begins flow in lacteals (30% of fat absorbed by small intestine go into lacteals) and end/stops in cisterna (enlarged lower portion of the largest` lymph duct in the body….)
Chyle | intestinal lymphatic vessels | mesentery lymph nodes | cisterna chyli-thoracic duct
Tissue fluid
- Capillaries (in small intestine/Lacteals/form chyle)
- Vessels
- Nodes
4a. Rt Lymphatic Duct (rt head/neck/thorax/arm)
4b. Thoracic largest 3/4 (1st in cisterna/chyle for lacteals) - Blood
Tissue fluid
Substance which bathes and surrounds body’s cells
Thoracic Duct: largest; 3/4 of body; drains lower extremities, left head/neck/thorax/arm; (1st in cisterna/chyle for lacteals)
