The widely distributed phagocytic cellls that remain in fixed position constitute what tissue?
These are called macrophages and are part of the reticuloendothelial system, primarily found in tissues such as the liver, spleen, and lymph nodes.
Do special lysosomes in the macrophage cell contain digestive enzymes that can destroy invading bacteria?
Yes, macrophages contain lysosomes that contain digestive enzymes such as lysozyme and proteases. These enzymes help the macrophages break down and destroy invading bacteria and other pathogens.
Does the spleen contain numerous macrophages?
Yes, the spleen contains numerous macrophages which are involved in removing old or damaged red blood cells, as well as in fighting infections by engulfing and destroying pathogens.
Which lymphoid organ does not contain reticular connective tissue?
The thymus is a lymphoid organ that does not contain reticular connective tissue. Instead, it is composed of epithelial cells and lymphocytes. This organ plays a crucial role in T cell maturation and development.
Where do macrophages destroy old red blood cells?
Macrophages primarily destroy old red blood cells in the spleen, although this process can also occur in the liver and bone marrow. The spleen serves as a key organ for filtering the blood and removing aged or damaged erythrocytes.

Specialised cells of the liver lobules are known as what?
Kuffper cells? These are the fixed macrophages ... Otherwise you may mean hepatocytes in the liver lobules. These contain many microvilli and carrier proteins facing the space of disse for nutrient exchange.

Which organ system contain your organ?
Liver
What is found in the lymph nodes and tonsils?
Lymph nodes are located along lymphatic pathways, and contain lymphocytes and macrophages, which destroy invading microorganisms. They remove and destroy potentially harmful foreign particles from the lymph through phagocytosis by macrophages. They are also the centers for the production of lymphocytes that act against foreign particles.Lymph nodes are located along lymphatic pathways, and contain lymphocytes and macrophages, which destroy invading microorganisms.
