What types of blood cells are lymphocytes and monocytes?
Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell involved in immune response, while monocytes are another type of white blood cell that help with tissue repair and fighting off pathogens.
Is menstrual blood the same as regular blood?

The white pulp of the spleen is composed primarily of?
The white pulp of the spleen is primarily composed of lymphocytes, which are a type of white blood cell involved in the immune response. This area of the spleen is responsible for filtering the blood and detecting and responding to foreign invaders, such as bacteria and viruses.
Where are white blood cells formed?
White blood cells are formed in the bone marrow, which is the soft tissue found in the cavities of bones. They originate from hematopoietic stem cells that mature into different types of white blood cells, such as neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils.
What type of blood cell is responsible for immunity?
Specific immunity is also known as adaptive immunity or acquired immunity active or passive. There are two types of specific immune responses; humoral and cell mediated. Humoral immunity is mediated by B Lymphocytes that produce antibodies; forms of B lymphocytes are IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE. They primarily attach bacterial invaders Cellular immunity is mediated by T Lymphocytes and combat intracellular infections (such as viruses), monitor cellular disruptions like tumors or foreign tissues, and fight fungal infections.
Water passes from the tissue fluids into the blood capillaries mainly because?
lymph blood has a higher protein concentration than the tissue fluids
Is blood forming tissue only found in myeloid tissue?
Not all, some white blood cells come from lymphoid tissue, especially T-lymphocytes. Plasma proteins in the blood are made in the liver tissue not the myeloid tissue
Are lymphocytes specialized red blood cells that attack specific microorganisms?
lymphatic tissue
Where does tissue fluid originate from?
When blood enters a capillary network from an artery it is at high pressure. Molecules of blood plasma are squeezed out of the capillary.Overall the liquid is formed around the cells is called tissue fluid.
What types of blood cells are lymphocytes and monocytes?
Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell involved in immune response, while monocytes are another type of white blood cell that help with tissue repair and fighting off pathogens.
The cells known as lymphocytes?
secrete antibodies into blood and lymph fluids
Are lymphocytes phagocytic?
Yes, the lymphocytes neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and B-lymphocytes. The are the primary method the body uses to remove free microorganisms in blood and tissue fluids.
Does body tissue transmit HIV?
what 3 fluids transmit the hiv virus? saliva, blood, genital fluids
The presence of plasma proteins in the blood increases its what pressure as compared to tissue fluids?
venous
What workplace document is the heart of the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard?
pertains to blood and body fluids containing visible blood, semen, vaginal secretions as well as tissue and synovial fluids
What does Hematology lym?
Hematology is the study of blood and blood-forming tissues, while lymph is a type of white blood cell that plays a role in the immune system. Lymphocytes are important in recognizing and fighting off infections and diseases. Hematology often involves analyzing the levels and types of lymphocytes in the blood to monitor a person's immune system health.
What is tissue binding in pharmacokinetics?
The fraction of total drug found in tissue. Usually referred to when higher drug concentrations are found in tissue than those of extracellular fluids and blood.
