| Question | Answer |
| The specific stroma of the thymus is reticulo-epithelial tissue (Y/N) | YES |
| Afferent lymph vessels enter the lymph node though its hilum (Y/N) | NO |
| Heamo-thymic barrier is in the cortex of the organ (Y/N) | YES |
| The capillaries of the bone marrow are discontinuous (Y/N) | YES |
| The cortex of the lymph nodes is made of lymph follicles (Y/N) | YES |
| Malpighian bodies of the spleen are made of lymphatic modules (Y/N) | NO |
| Malpighian bodies of the spleen and periarterial lymphatic sheaths (PALS) comprise the splenic red pulp (Y/N) | NO |
| The stroma of the tonsil is a reticular connective tissue (Y/N) | NO |
| Proliferation of B lymphocytes takes place in the cortex of the lymph node (Y/N) | YES |
| The stroma of the tonsil is a loose connective tissue (Y/N) | YES |
| The lymphatic tissue of the tonsil is organized into lymphatic nodules (Y/N) | YES |
| The lymphatic tissue of the thymus is organized into lymphatic nodules (Y/N) | NO |
| Yellow bone marrow is found in the diaphysis of long bones in adults (Y/N) | YES |
| Red bone marrow is found in the diaphysis of long bones in adults (Y/N) | NO |
| Corpuscles of Hassall are found in the medulla of the thymus (Y/N) | YES |
| Paracortical zone is typical for | lymph node |
| The blood vessels which are part of the corpus Malpigii are called | aa. Lymphonoduli (centrales) |
| Central organ of the lymphatic system is | thymus |
| Lymph is filtered through | Lymph nodes |
| The thymus | is the source of lymphocytes before birth and enables lymphocytes to develop into T cells |
| The composition of lymph is most similar to | interstitial fluid |
| The formation of lymph increases as a result of | increasing osmotic pressure in tissue fluid |
| Tissue fluid is.... and lymph is.... | ..forced out of blood plasma and generally lacking in proteins.. ..absorbed into lymph capillaries and rich in proteins and foreign particles |
| Age of a person to have largest thymus gland | 2 year old |
| Typical for the parenchyma of the spleen are | corpuscles of Malpigii |
| The organs which stroma is reticular connective tissue are (3) | 1. lymph node 2. spleen 3. bone marrow |
| Which lymphatic organs have afferent lymphatic vessels... | Lymph nodes |
| Reticular endothelial stroma is typical for... | thymus |
| The tonsil is made of (2) | 1. lymphoid tissue 2. epithelium |
| What are the components of the blood thymic barrier (3) | 1. endothelial cells of capillaries 2. basal lamina of capillaries 3. epithelioreticular sheath |
| Which lymphatic organ filters blood... | spleen |
| What are the (3) types of lymphocytes | 1. T 2. B 3. NK |
| What are the (3) types of T cells | 1. T killer 2. T helper 3. T supressor |
| Name (4) lymphatic organs | 1. lymph 2. tonsils 3. spleen 4. thymus |
| What are the major functions of the lymphatic system (3) | 1. fluid recovery 2. immunity 3. lipid absorption |
