Q

Development of Lymph Nodes

6 steps

A
  1. Lymphatic Endothelial Cells leave the blood vessels
  2. LECs Aggregate to form Lymph sacs with groups of mesenchyme.
  3. Form the lymphatic nodules
  4. The nodules become surrounded by sinuses, with mesenchyme completing the lymph node. Start of the formation of cavities
  5. Lymphatic cells migrate from three different locations: Mesenchyme, Thymus (Pre birth), Marrow (Bone)
  6. Partition- A capsule (outside) and trabeculae (btwn the cell walls) surround the lymphatic nodules from surrounding mesenchyme.

26
Which tonsil is at the base of the tongue, posterior 2/3rds ?
Lingual
27
Why do we need saliva ?
1. chemical break down of sugar 2. Antibacterial Combat dryness 3. Combat dryness 4. Helps remineralize the tooth surface
28
Parotid gland develops from step 1 step 2
an invagination of ectoderm between the maxillary and mandibular swelling 1. Tubular ducts sink into the mesenchyme 2. Duct opening in the mouth is transferred to the inner cheek via fusion of the max and mand swelling
29
Submandibular and sublingual glands form from ...
form similar to how parotid gland forms but in the floor of the oral cavity Forms from epithelial-mesenchymal interactions
30
Which are the major salivary glands
Parotid Gland Submandibular Sublingual Glands
31
Serous Secretion
thin, watery fluid enzymes(amylases, peroxidases, lysozyme) lactoferin immunoglobulin A
32
Lactoferrin
Chelates iron needed for bacterial growth
33
Immunoglobulin A
Neutralizes bacteria and viruses

Muccous Secretion
Thick fluid | Mucins (glycoproteins)
35
Saliva composition

41
Striated Duct

Which salivary gland is on the lateral border of the mandible
Submandibular salivary gland
59
Which salivary gland produces 70% of Saliva ?
Submandibualr
60
Submandibular Salivary gland secrets via
submandubular duct (Wharton's Duct) on booth sides of the lingual frenulum
61
Submandibular is mostly __________ secretions
Mostly serous but also as some Mucous acini
62
What duct are in the submandibular gland ?
Striated duct

What produces 5% of Saliva?
Sublingual Salivary Gland
64
Which salivary gland is below the anterior portion of the tongue?
Sublingual Salivary Gland
65
Sublingual salivary gland excretes via

66
Sublingual salivary gland secretions....
Mostly Mucous acini and some serious acini

Which salivary gland is mostly mucous sections and no capsule ?
Sublingual
68
