Fever |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Mobilizes |defenses, |accelerates |repairs, |inhibits |pathogens |
(body |temp |rises |above |37.2 |in |response |to |pathogens), |increases |metabolic |rate |of |cells
Lymphatic |System |Consists |of |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Lymph, |lymphatic |vessels, |lymphoid |
tissues, |lymphoid |organs
Lymph |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-A |colorless |fluid |containing |white |blood |cells, |that |bathes |the |
tissues |and |drains |through |the |lymphatic |system |into |the |bloodstream
Lymphatic |Vessels |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Carry |lymph, |capillaries |are |blind-ended |located |at |
vascular |capillary |beds, |can |be |afferent |and |efferent
, Primary |Lymphoid |Organs |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Thymus |and |bone |marrow |("lymphoid |
tissue")
Thymus |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Primary |lymphoid |organ |where |T |lymphocytes |mature
Bone |Marrow |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Primary |lymphoid |organ |that |produces |all |lymphocytes,
|where |the |B |cells |amture
Functions |of |the |Lymphatic |System |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Body |fluid |homeostasis |and |
immune |system
Lymph |Nodes |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Capsule |of |fibrous |tissue, |partitions |(differentiated |from
|nodules), |where |99% |of |antigens |are |removed |and |processed |(FILTERS), |contain |macrophages
Dendritic |Cells |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Found |in |certain |tissues, |if |activated |migrate |to |lymph |
nodes |to |present |antigen
