Q

What are the functions of different white blood cell types?

A
  • Leukocytes = defends body from disease
  • Granular leukocytes
    ~ Neutrophils = Phagocytize (absorb) bacteria
    ~ Eosinophils = Neutralize parasitic worms & mediate allergic responses
    ~ Basophils = Opposes blood clotting & promotes inflammation (swollen & hot red pain)
  • Agranular leukocytes
    ~ Lymphocytes = Differentiate in lymphoid tissue
    ~ NK cells = Give quick response to cells that don’t express “self” proteins
    ~ B cells = Target certain pathogens (virus that makes disease) by making antibodies
    ~ T cells = Turn on immune response & physically assault cells with diseases
    ~ Monocytes =
    + “Find and destroy germs (viruses, bacteria, fungi and protozoa) and get rid of infected cells.
    + Call on other white blood cells to help heal injury and stop infection” (Cleveland Clinic).
    ~ Macrophages =
    + Absorb pathogens
    + Display antigens to immune cells
    + Attract Leukocytes to infected location

Q

Compare and contrast how blood flows from the aorta to the left versus the right upper
extremity. Name the arteries that are involved in transporting oxygenated blood to
those respective regions.

A
  1. For Right Upper Extremity:
    Aorta > Brachiocephalic Artery > Common Carotid Artery
    For Left Upper Extremity:
    Aorta > Left Common Carotid Artery
  2. Right Internal Carotid Artery, Right Vertebral Artery, Right Common Carotid Artery, Right Subclavian Artery, Brachioephalic Artery, Left Internal Carotid Artery, Left Vertebral Artery, Left Common Carotid Artery, & Left Subclavian Artery
