  12. Blood System Overview • Blood circulates through blood vessels to: • transport oxygen, nutrients and hormones to body cells • carry away waste • Plasma — liquid portion of the blood

  13. Blood System Overview (continued) • Cellular components suspended in the plasma: • erythrocytes — red blood cells • leukocytes — white blood cells • platelets — cell fragments essential for blood clotting • Serum: portion of the plasma that remains after the clotting process

  14. Components of the Blood

  15. Lymphatic System Overview • Protects the body by filtering microorganisms and foreign particles • Maintains the body’s internal fluid environment • Responsible for carrying fats away from digestive organs

  16. Lymphatic System

  17. Lymph Organs • thymus • primary gland of the lymphatic system • produces T lymphocytes to help immune response • spleen • located between stomach and diaphragm • filters out aging blood cells • removes cellular debris

  18. Lymph Structures • lymph • fluid that is circulated through lymph vessels • lymph capillaries • draw lymph from tissues to lymph vessels • lymph vessels • circulate lymph to the lymph nodes

  19. Lymph Structures (continued) • lymph nodes • oval structures that filter lymph • located in the cervical, axillary and inguinal regions • lymph ducts • collecting channels that carry lymph from the lymph nodes to the veins

  20. Immunity • Process of disease protection induced by exposure to an antigen • antigen — substance that, when introduced into the body causes formation of antibodies against it • antibody — substance produced by the body that destroys or inactivates an antigen

  21. Types of Immunity • Active immunity • Protects the body against a future infection as a result of natural antibodies developed after an infection • artificial antibodies — after administration of a vaccine • Passiveimmunity • conveyed naturally through the placenta to a fetus • conveyed artificially by injection of a serum containing antibodies
