Q

what is the name of the group of inspiratory neurons

A

DRG, dorsal respiratory group

27
Q

what is the name of the group of expiratory neurons

A

VRG, ventral respiratory group

28
Q

Are the expiratory neurons active during rest

A

no

29
Q

what are the two centers of the pontine respiratory group

A

apneuistic center, and pnuemotaxic center

30
Q

what does the apneuistic center do

A

stimulates the DRG

31
Q

what does the pnuemotaxic center do

A

fine tunes breathing, inhibits DRG

32
Q

What do pulomary stretch receptors respond to

A

responds when bronchioles are inflated or stretched

33
Q

What do central Chemoreceptors respond to

A

low pH and high CO2 in CSF in brain

34
Q

what do peripheral chemoreceptors respond to

A

respond to low O2 levels in blood

35
Q

what are the primary lymphatic organs

A

red bone marrow and thymus

36
Q

what are lymph nodes

A

small swellings where lymph if filtered, found at irregular intervals

37
Q

what is innate immunity

A

the body’s first line of defense, non specific

38
Q

what are physical barriers

A

skin, mucous membranes, hairs and cilia, acid, tears

39
Q

what is a fever

A

when the body’s thermostat is set upwards in repsonse to a pyrogen

40
Q

what si inflammation

A

the bodily repsonse to when tissues are damaged

41
Q

what are the 4 signs of acute inflammation

A

redness, heat,swelling, and pain

42
Q

what are the three phagocytic white blood cells

A

neutrophils, eosionophil, monocyte

43
Q

what are natural killer cells

A

special class of T cells which perform generalized functions such as kill tumor cells and infected cells

44
Q

how to NKC kill

A

by cytolysis, they secrete perforin

45
Q

what are the two antimicrobial proteins

A

interferons and complement proteins

46
Q

how do interferons work

A

virus infected cells release interferons which bind to a non infected cell causing the release of anti viral proteins

47
Q

what do complement proteins do

A

Form MAC attacks that punch holes in the membrane of intruders

48
Q

what is one feature about adaptive immunity

A

tolerance for self proteins and specificity for particular foreign molecules

49
Q

what is another feature about adaptive immunity

A

memory of past foreign molecules

50
Q

where do b cells mature

A

in bone marrow

51
Q

where do t cells mature

A

thymus

Q

how many amino acids in a sequence are needed to distinguish bacteria from human protein

A

8

53
Q

what are residual bodies

A

the remnants of a pathogen after a phagocyte has eaten them

54
Q

what are MHC proteins

A

they display antigens to the immune system

55
Q

what kind of antigen does MHC 2 protein present

A

extracellular, proteins digested by phagocytes

56
Q

what kind of cell interacts with the antigen found on MHC 2 proteins

A
