The Lymphatic System And Antigen Pathway

The immune system is made up of several types of cells that work together to fight infections. Lymph cells (called lymphocytes) are the main type of cell in the adaptive immune system. There are 2 types of lymph cells: T cells and B cells. When B cells respond to an infection, they change into plasma cells. The plasma cells are found mainly in the bone marrow—the soft, inner part of some bones. The plasma cells

The circulatory system would transport nutrients and oxygen to all the cells in the body. Organs include, heart, veins, and arteries. The respiratory system exchanges gases, like carbon dioxide, and oxygen so that the body will function properly. These two systems work together to get oxygen to move blood, to work out many organs in the body. Air goes in and out by the mouth or nose and comes in and out of the lungs. What comes in is oxygen, and that oxygen moves blood to the lungs. What comes out is carbon dioxide, and that moves the blood to the

Red and white blood cells are the two types of blood cells in the human body. Red blood cells transport oxygen around the body which is transferred through the bloodstream. It moves oxygen into the body and then removes it. They are absorbed through its haemoglobin.

Composed of the heart, blood vessels, and blood, the cardiovascular system is the body system that carries out the tasks of pumping and transporting blood, oxygen, nutrients, and waste products, and other substances throughout the body.

Respiratory system, the cardiovascular system, the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system. These are the main systems within the body and are made up of individual organs that then work together. For instance, the respiratory system is made of the nose, lungs, heart and this lets us breathe.

a. They are related because the lymphatic system is a network of tissues and organs. It is made up mainly of lymph vessels,

The Circulatory system is responsible for the transport of blood throughout the body. The Circulatory system has many organs. The main components are the heart, the blood, and the blood vessels. It also consists of arteries, arterioles,

The circulatory and immune systems are two very closely related systems. The circulatory is composed out of blood vessels, the heart, and blood. The immune system is made up of white blood cells and various lymph nodes. Basically, most of the immune system is found inside the blood of the circulatory system. The circulatory system provides the body with blood. It gives the kidneys of the digestive system something to filter and picks up nutrients from the small intestines. It also picks up air from the lungs of the respiratory system and provides the brain of the nervous system with blood, along with the rests of the body. Protection from wounds in the integumentary system is also provided by the circulatory system which has platelets that aid in blood clotting and forming scabs. The immune system protects all the other systems from disease and helps them from being attacked by viruses and bacteria. It also aids the ears of the nervous system with some very protective earwax. The circulatory system provides us with life fluid while the immune system protects that fluid and the rest of our body.

The lymphatic system works in three ways. It helps to control the balance of the body’s fluids by draining and cleansing fluid that seeps from the circulatory system during normal cardiovascular circulation. As fluid leaves the circulatory system it enters the tissue cells and whilst the majority of it diffuses back into the vessels of the circulatory system, the remainder enters the open ends of the lymph vessels. The lymphatic system also works with the villi in the digestive system to help deliver fats and absorbed nutrients in the digested food we eat, back to the circulatory system. This fluid is not called

The organs that make up the lymphatic and immune system are the tonsils, spleen, thymus gland, lymph nodes, and lymphatic vessels. White blood cells (leukocytes), red blood cells (erythrocytes), plasma, and platelets (thrombocytes) make up the blood. Lymphocytes are leukocytes (white blood cells) that help the body fight off diseases. Two types of lymphocytes are B cells and T cells. Lymphocytes recognize antigens, or foreign substances/matter, in the body. Lymphocytes are a classification of agranulocytes, or cells (-cytes) without (a-) granules (granul/o) in the cytoplasm. B cells are created from stem cells, which are located in the bone marrow. B cells respond to antigens by becoming plasma cells. These plasma cells then create antibodies. Memory B cells produce a stronger response with the next exposure to the antigen. B cells fight off infection and bacteria while T cells defend against viruses and cancer cells. A hormone created by the thymus gland called thymosin changes lymphocytes into T cells. The thymus gland is active when you are a child and slowly shrinks, as you get older. T cells bind to the antigens on the cells and directly attack them. T cells secrete lymphokines that increase T cell production and directly kill cells with antigens. There are three types of T cells: cytotoxic T cells, helper T cells, and memory T cells.

The lymphatic system are a complex network of specialised cells and organs that defend the body against infection. Lymphatic organs include the bone marrow, spleen, thymus gland, lymph nodes, tonsils, adenoids, appendix and clumps of tissue in the small bowel. A function of the lymphatic system is to nurture and mature the B and T-lymphocytes (white blood cells vital to immune function). Cancerous changes can take place

Blood as the part of circulaotry system system is the universal transport system of the human body. It transmit the respiratory gases, nutrient media, metabolic products, hormones, protective cells antitoxins, fluids and heat.

The main system that was studied in the past labs was the circulatory system. The circulatory system consists of the heart, the blood and all its components, arteries, and veins. The blood is composed of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets which are all important. Red blood cells are used to transport respiratory gases to the body, white blood cells are the body’s defense mechanism, and platelets are what helps blood clot when there is an opening in the surface of the skin or in the body where blood is escaping the arteries, and veins. The heart is a major blood pumping organ in the body that helps pump blood to the rest of the body. The heart is a really complex organ that is necessary for survival and needs blood, veins, and arteries to help it complete its function of pumping the blood to the body.

spleen is a place for immune function, and it kills defective or aged red blood

The purpose of this exercise is to learn about the lymphatic system and how it works and helps the human body. Why we need it and the components associated with the lymphatic system.
