Lymphatic System: Exam 2 assesses knowledge on the structure and function of the lymphatic system, including lymph nodes, lymphatic ducts, and related physiological mechanisms. It is crucial for students in health sciences aiming to understand immune responses and lymphatic health.

Lymph nodes
Rate this question:
Ileum of the small intestine
Jejunum of the small intestine
Duodenum of the small intestine
Large intestine
Rate this question:
Childhood
Old age
Middle age
Fetal development
Rate this question:
The thymus is not affected by age
The thymus initially increases in size and then decreases in size from adolescence through old age
The size of the thymus increases continuously from birth to death
The size of the thymus decreases continuously from birth to death
Rate this question:
Lower extremities
Inguinal region
Cervical region
Axillary region
Rate this question:
Less permeable than blood capillaries
As permeable as blood capillaries
More permeable than blood capillaries
Completely impermeable
Rate this question:
Lymphocytes
Monocytes
Marcophages
Basophils
Rate this question:
Peyer's tonsils
Lingual tonsils
Palatine tonsils
Pharyngeal tonsils
Rate this question:
Islets of Langerhans
Peyer's patches
Palatine tonsils
Lingual tonsils
Rate this question:
Ions
Red blood cells
Water
Plasma proteins
Rate this question:
Increased pressure in the lymphatics proximal to the blockage
Abnormally high lymph drainage from the distal region
Shrinkage of tissues distal to the blockage due to inadequate delivery of lymph
Serve localized edema distal to the blockage
Rate this question:
Lymphoid tissue is predominantly reticular connective tissue
Lymphoid macrophages secrete antibodies into the blood
Once a lymphocyte enters the lymphoid tissue, it resides there permanently
T lymphocytes act by ingesting foreign substances
Rate this question:
Produce lymph fluid and cerebro-spinal fluid
Serve as antigen surveillance areas
Act as lymph filters and activate the immune system
Produce lymphoid cells and granular WBCs
Removal of old or defective blood cells from the blood
Forming crypts that trap bacteria
Storage of iron
Storage of blood platelets
Rate this question:
The two main types are T cells and macrophages
T cells are the only form of lymphocyte found in lymphoid tissue
T cells are the precursors of B cells
B cells produce plasma cells, which secrete antibodies into the blood
Rate this question:
