what is the lymphatic system of tissues and vessels scattered throughout
system? the body and services almost all regions
what are the parts of the tonsils, thymus, spleen, peyer patch, small intestine,
lymphatic system? appendix, lymph nodes and vessels
functions of the fluid balance, protection, and absorption of fats
lymphatic system
one-way system that begins in the tissues and ends
lymphatic circulation is
when the lymph joins the blood
walls (endothelium) flattened epithelial cells, more
permeable, cells overlap slightly, forming one-way
lymphatic capillaries
valves, lacteals absorb fat, arise blindly (closed at
one end)
include superficial and deep sets, right lymphatic
lymphatic vessels
duct and thoracic duct
short vessel receives only lymph that comes from
right lymphatic duct the body's superior right quadrant and empties into
right subclavian vein near heart
receives lymph from all parts of the body except
thoracic duct those superior to the diaphragm on the right side;
drains into thee left subclavian vein

by:
breathing
roughly how many lymph about 600
nodes are in the body?
distributed throughout the body and makes up
lymphoid tissue

form the mesentry, 100-150 nodes
located in groin region, receive lymph drainage
Inguinal nodes from lower extremities and from external
reproductive organs
buboes enlarged Inguinal nodes
cleanses blood through filtration and phagocytosis,

four phases of respiration
transport in the blood, and internal gas exchange
exchange of air between the atmosphere and the air
pulmonary ventilation
sacs (alveoli) of the lungs
occurs in the lungs as oxygen diffuses from the air
external gas exchange sacs into the blood and carbon dioxide diffuses out
of blood to be eliminated
