An individual who has had a splenectomy is scheduled to undergo a dental procedure. Describe what preventive measures the dentist is likely to take prior to performing the procedure and explain why?

Because an individual who has undergone a splenectomy is more susceptible to infections, and because the mouth contains millions of different bacteria that will likely enter the bloodstream following a dental procedure that causes bleeding in the mouth, the patient will have to take prophylactic antibiotics to protect against a systemic infection. The dentist will prescribe a broad-spectrum antibiotic that has been proven effective against most common bacterial infections of an oral origin.

Muscular system

Which of the following cells is part of the body's second line of defense?

Natural killer cells

Exposure to an infectious agent during your day-to-day activities leads to:

Naturally acquired active immunity

Describe the ways to acquire adaptive immunity.

Naturally acquired active immunity is acquired following exposure to a microbe, antigen recognition by B and T cells and costimulation leading to formation of antibody-secreting plasma cells, cytotoxic T cells, and B and T memory cells. Naturally acquired passive immunity occurs when IgG antibodies are transferred from mother to fetus across the placental barrier or IgA antibodies are transferred from mother to infant during breast-feeding. Artificially acquired active immunity is acquired via antigens introduced during vaccinations. Artificially acquired passive immunity is acquired via intravenous injection of immunoglobulins.

Which type of immunity defends against any type of invader?

Nonspecific

Which complement system action makes microbes more susceptible to phagocytosis?

Opsonization

Which of the following is NOT considered an organ of the immune system?

Pancreas

Which of these chemicals do NOT induce vasodilation, increased permeability, and increased fluid flow to an infection site?

Perforin

The ability of an antigen to react specifically with the antibodies or cells it has provoked is called

Reactivity

Which of the following is a function of the spleen?

Removes worn out blood cells

Lack of resistance is also known as:

Susceptibility

To become activated, which of the following requires being bound to a foreign antigen AND simultaneous costimulation?

T cell

Describe what process is happening in the diagram.

The diagram represents processing and presenting of exogenous antigen by an antigen-presenting cell.

Describe how lymphatic capillaries are one-way only vessels.

The ends of the endothelial cells in the wall of the lymphatic capillary overlap. When pressure is higher in the interstitial fluid than in the lymph, the cells separate slightly allowing interstitial fluid into the vessel. When pressure is greater inside, the cells are tightly packed, not allowing the lymph to cross back into the interstitial fluid.

What process does this diagram represent?

The formation of lymph from interstitial fluid into a lymphatic capillary through the spaces between overlapping endothelial cells.
