The Lymphatic SystemWhat are the functions of the lymphatic system?1- Fluid Balance (Lymph acts an intermediary between blood in capillaries and interstitial tissue/cells and lymph vessels transport excess fluid back into blood.)
2-Lymphocyte Production (Lymph
Nodes, Spleen and Thymus)
3-Filtration (Lymph Nodes/Tonsils)

The Lymphatic System
Immunity Sometimes pathogens and foreign invaders penetrate a person’s first line of defense; unbroken skin—the body’s ability to resist these invaders and diseases they cause iscalled Immunity.2 general types are:Natural Immunity Acquired Immunity
Think about how
sneezing relates to
immunity.

The Lymphatic System
Natural immunity The immunity you are naturally born with
(unbroken skin, secretions, mucus, tears,
WBCs, inflammatory response.)
Acquired ImmunityWhen body encounters foreign invaders it creates a
substance to fight it (antibody)and tries to make itself
permanently resistant to invader. Develops over lifetime
May be passive or active5

Structures of the lymphatic system
11
Lymph fluid-similar to plasma•straw-colored•clear•tissue fluid•Carries digested
food, O2, andhormones to tissue
cells. - Carries wastes (CO2, &urea) from tissue cells back to capillaries for excretion.

Lymph vessels•parallel to blood vessels•No pump, so transports lymph •by pushing it thru vessels via contraction of skeletal muscles

Lymph vessels•Lacteals
• Specialized lymph vessels in the small intestines

Lymph surrounding tissue cells enters small lymph vessels—which join to form larger lymph vessels (lymphatics) eventually forming 2 main Lymphatics
• Thoracic duct• AKA called the Left
Lymphatic duct• receives lymph from
the left side, abdomen, empties into heart
• Right Lymphatic ducto receives lymph from R
arm, upper R side head and upper trunk empties into heart
• Lymph flows only in one direction-from body organs to
• the Heart.

Structures of the lymphatic system
17
Lymph nodesActs as a filter for pathogens or foreign substances, produces lymphocytes (WBCs)which enter blood stream and produce antibodies.Can become inflamed if large qty harmful substances cannot be destroyed by lymphocytes.Found in clusters in axillary (armpit), cervical, groin, and abdominal areas.

Tonsils-Lymph Nodes•3 pairs•masses of lymphatic tissue
1. Palatine tonsilssides of throat
2. Adenoids•upper throat•(pharynx)
3. Lingual tonsils•back of tongue

Since Tonsils are lymph nodes, they play an Important part in our immunity.Tonsils get smaller as person ages. “Why?”

Spleen• Sac-like mass• Largest lymphatic • Located in the LUQ• Stores RBCs• Destroys old RBCs• Forms WBCs• Filters blood
