A

Breakdown of an abnormally large number of RBCs results in red or brown urine

36
Q

Inability to produce bilirubin causes

A

bilirubin levels to increase . Issue with liver -> bilirubin -> jaundice

Bilirubin in large intestine:

A

Bacteria convert bilirubin to urobilins and stercobilins; they enter feces, giving it yellow-brown or brown color

38

substances that can elicit immune responses

39
Q

T or F? Blood type is determined by the presence or absence of specific surface antigens on RBCs

47
Q

Phagocytosis

A

Neutrophils, monocytes, and eosinophils can partake in this. Engulf pathogens, cell debris etc.

A

Indicates number of each type of WBC in a sample

Reported as percentage

49
Q

Two types of WBC

A

Granular leukocytes : absorb stains.

Agranular leukocytes : dont absorb stains
L: 20-40% M: 2-8%

50
Q

3 Stages of Hemostasis

A

Vascualar: 30 min after injury, vascular spasms, endothelium become sticky
Platelet: attachment of platelets to sticky endothelial surfaces, basement membrane, exposed collagen fibers

A

Inherited bleeding disorder, Caused by missing or reduced production of a clotting factor. In severe cases, extensive bleeding occurs with minor contact

54
Q

A

Sepsis of the blood (“blood poisoning”)

55
Q

Sepsis

A

Widespread infection of body tissue

56
Q

A

Immunity, ability to resist infection and disease
Maintaining normal blood volume and composition of interstitial fluid
Components: Lymphocytes, Lymphatic vessels, lymphatic tissues

59
Q

Lymphocytes

A

Surrounded by lymphs (interstitial fluid between cells)

60
Q

Primary lymphoid tissues and organs

A

Lymphocytes are formed and matured. red bone marrow, thymus gland

61
Q

Secondary lymphoid tissues and organs

A

Lymphocytes are cloned. lymph nodes, tonsils, MALT, appendix, spleen

62
Q

Lymphatic capillaries

A

Overlapping cells, one-way valves. areas without blood supply lack these capillaries for example the cornea.

63
Q

Thoracic duct

A

left side, occupies more than right lymphatic duct

64
Q

Cisterna chyli

A

Expanded, sac-like chamber at the base of the thoracic duct

65
Q

Lymph is drained into the cysterna chyli by the:

A

Lumbar trunks

Intestinal trunk

66
Q

3 classes of Lymphocytes

A

T cells 80% cell mediated immunity
B Cells 10-15% antibody mediated immunity
NK Cells 5-10% immune surveillance

67
Q

T Cells

A
  1. Cytotoxic T cells: attack foreign affects by virus
  2. Helper T cells: stimulate t and b cells, activate b cells before b can produce antibodies
  3. Regulatory cells: immune response
  4. Memory t cells: respond to antigens they have already encountered
68
Q

B Cells

A

-> plasma cells. When stimulated, become plasma cells that produce and secrete antibodies.

69
Q

NK Cells

A

Attack foreign virus infected cancer cells

70
Q

Lymphopoiesis (lymphocyte production)

A

-Red bone marrow, thymus, lymphoid tissue . redbone marrow plays primary role. Thymus -> blood barrier, only best T cells are filtered out. Mature t cells reenter blood stream and travel to peripheral lymphoid tissues and organs

71
Q

Lymphoid stem cells 2 groups

A
  1. migrates to thymus and develops T cells

2. migrates to red bone marrow and produces B cells (lymph nodes ,spleen) and NK cells

72
Q

Aggregated lymphoid nodules, Peyers patches

A

Clusters of lymphoid nodules deep to the epithelial lining of the intestines

73
Q

Lymph nodes

A

Function as filters, removing 99 percent of pathogens from lymph before fluid returns to bloodstream, kidney bean

74
Q

Thymus decreases with age. T or F?

A

True

75
Q

Thymus

A

No blood thymus barrier in medulla.

76
Q

Spleen

A

Largest lymphoid organ, responds to antigens in the bloodstream. Filters. Removes abnormal rbcs by phagocytosis. initiates immune response by T and B cells. stores iron recycled from RBC. deep red when dissected due to large amounts of blood. Very fragile. Can rupture.

77
Q

Hilum

A

(indentation where blood and lymphatic vessels communicate)

78
Q

Trabeculae

A

Fibrous partitions that radiate outward from the hilum toward the capsule
Allow room for blood vessels
