lymph theory review

lymphocytes

B and T cells are

humoral immunity

Because antibodies are carried by the blood, this type of immunity is also called

histamine

Binding of the bee venom allergen to antibodies on the mast cells causes a massive release of which substance?

mechanical

Intact skin and mucous membranes are examples of what kind of barriers?

right lymphatic duct and then into the subclavian vein

Lymph from the right arm and the right side of the head and thorax drain into the

lymph nodes

Small pea-shaped structures that filter lymph as it flows through the lymphatic vessels are

reflexes

Sneezing and coughing are examples of

chemical

Tears, saliva and perspiration are examples of what kind of barriers?

Cell mediated immunity

The cell to cell contact by which T cells directly attacks the antigen?

It is a hormone secreted by the thymus gland and it produces and matures T cells

What is Thymosin and what does it do?

T cells

What is classified as killer, helper, suppressor, and memory?

B cells and plasma cells

What is most related to antibody-mediated immunity?

B and T cells

What is responsible for specific immunity?

Anaphylaxis

What is the name of a severe hypersensitivity reaction?

cervical

What is the name of the lymph nodes that drain the head and neck region?

tonsillectomy

What is the term that refers to removal of the palatine tonsils?

titer

What is the term that refers to the level of antibodies in your blood?

immunization

What is the term that refers to the use of dead or attenuated pathogens to stimulate antibody production?

small intestinal villus

A lacteal is located within the

vasodilation and bronchoconstriction

A severe anaphylactic reaction causes death by

Artificially acquired active

A vaccine provides you with what type of immunity?

antigen

An allergen is an

T cells

HIV produces severe impairment of the immune system by attacking what cells?

Naturally acquired passive

If an infant received IgA antibodies from the mother while breastfeeding, what type of immunity does the child receive?

cause edema

If proteins are allowed to accumulate in the interstitial space, they will

Naturally acquired active

If you had measles as a child, what would best describe you immunity to measles?

Immunoglobins / Antibodies

IgE, IgA, IgM, and IgG are examples of what?

inflammation

Redness, heat, swelling, and pain are indicative of

spleen

The largest lymphoid organ

subclavian veins

The right lymphatic duct and the thoracic duct empty into the

lymphoid organs

The spleen, thymus gland, tonsils, and lymph nodes are

pharengeal tonsils

These structures are located near the opening of the nasal cavity in the upper throat and are also called the adenoids

Memory T cells

What T cells do not participate in the destruction of the pathogen, but allow for a more rapid response if the antigen is presented at a later time?

axillary lymph nodes

What are the lymphoid structures that are generally removed during a mastectomy?

T cells

What cell engages is cell-to-cell combat?

epinephrine injection

What is the treatment of choice for an anaphylactic reaction

thymus gland

What lymphoid organ is located in the ventral cavity, thoracic cavity, and mediastinum?

wheezing and hypotension

What medical condition is a result of a massive release of histamine?

thymus gland

What structure is concerned with the processing and maturation of the T lymphocytes?

Naturally acquired active

What type of immunity explains why you will not get chickenpox as an adult if you were infected as a child?

Naturally acquired active

What type of immunity is achieved by "getting" the disease?

Artificially acquire passive

What type of immunity is achieved by an injection of an antibody containing gamma globin?

Naturally acquired passive

What type of immunity is most related to the placentral transfer of antibodies from the mother to the fetus?

interstitial fluid

Where does lymph originally come from

B cells

Which cell is most associated with plasma cells and creates antibodies?

Helper T cells

Which cells secrete a lymphokine that stimulates both T and B cells?

Killer T cells

Which of the T cells destroys pathogens by punching holes in their cell membranes and secreting lymphokines?

macrophage

Which of the cells engulfs the pathogen to achieve "antigen presentation"?

B cells

Which of the following are most associated with plasma cells and antibodies?

mononeucleosis

Which of the following is due to a viral infection involving the lymph nodes and is called the kissing disease?
