How are fats transported in the blood?
They are converted into triglycerides after digestion then are released into the lymph, where they pass into the veins and travel in that form in the blood.
How many liters of lymph fluid transported per day by lymph system?
3 liter daily
How are hormones transportd?
They are transported through blood.Some times through lymph.
Is true the itestinal villi contains capillaries and lacteals for chemical digestion?
yes. every mucosal villi in the small intestine contains a venule(vein) and arteriole (artery) and a lymph vessel (specifacally lacteals). The lacteals (lymph vessels) serve an important function in the absorption of fats and other nutrients. The capillaires transport the products of digestion of dietary proteins and carbohydrates, and the lacteals transport those of dietary fats.
What do the lymphatic vessels lead to that filter the fluid being transported?
Lymph nodes.
How is water transported around the human body?
By the blood.
Why are lipids harder to break down than carbohydrates?
Carbohydrates are broken down in digestion. Carbohydrates are easier to break down because carbohydrates are soluble in water, But on the other hand Lipids are much harder to break down because Lipids (fats) come in the form grease and oil. Grease is solid at room temperature, While oil is liquid. Fats require special digestive action before absorption because the end products must be carried away in a water medium (Blood and Lymph) in which fats are not soluble.
True or false fat molecules with longer chains of carbon atoms tend to be transported away from the intestine by lymph?
True
What specialized fluid is formed in the tissue spaces and transported by way of the specialized lymphatic vessels to eventually reenter the circulatory system?
Lymph
How does the composition of the lymph in the cisterna chyli different from that in the general lymphatic stream?
Lymph cisterna chyli has a conduit for the product of digestion while the general lymphatic stream gets intersistual fluids and white blood cells and goes through the lymph nodes to be cleaned before being sent back to the blood.
Which structures in animals are similar to xylem and phloem in plants?
the xylem and phloem in a plant are used to transport food and water. in animals the water is used in the blood. foods animals eat are classified into carbohydrates , proteins & fats.acids in our stomach break down each of these into basic components. the broken down carbohydrates and proteins(amino acids) get transported via the blood vessels(arteries and veins) & fats (fatty acids & glycerol) get transported through the lymph network
How does the composition of lymph in the cisterna chyli differ from that in the general lymphatic stream?
Composition of the lymph in the cisterna chyli has conduit for the lipid product of digestion. General Lymphatic stream gets interstitial fluids and white blood cells, and goes through lymph nodes to be cleaned before sent back to the blood vessels to be carried back to the heart. Contains FATTY lymph
