Anatomy Exam 3 Flashcards
Responsible for cellular immunity
T Cells
(Endocrine Glands location)
Middle of brain
Pineal gland
Migrate to injury sites & release heparin & histamine into ISF;
attracts others of its kind &
eosinophils to area
Basophils (less than 1%):
Responsible for immune surveillance; destruction of abnormal tissue cells & preventing cancer
NK cells (natural killer)
Hematocrit decrease seen with ___ & ___
Anemia & hemorrhage
protein that contains iron
Hemoglobin
Shaped like almond, depression of frontal bone, in upper outer portion of each orbit;
Produces tears (watery, slightly alkaline); Contain enzyme lysozyme – attacks bacteria & fight infection
Lacrimal Gland
____ count the different types of leukocytes
Blood tests
Men hematocrit %
42 to 54%
receptors in internal ear
equilibrium
localized near tip of tongue
sweet
when receptors exposed to a continuous stimulus, receptors adjust so sensation becomes less acute
adaptation
Requires an external brake to slow it
Positive feedback mechanism
(Retina parts)
color vision
Cones
Hearing & equilibrium receptors
(movement of cilia on receptor cells)
- ear
Proprioceptors
(Endocrine Glands location)
on top of kidneys, like a cap;
at level of 12th rib

(Endocrine Glands location)
hangs beneath hypothalamus
Pituitary Gland
