Term
What is the primary function of erythrocytes. |
|
Definition
Functioning only within the blood stream, they supply O2 and exchange CO2 with tissues of the body. |
|
|
Term
What is the primary function of neutrophils? |
|
Definition
After migrating to the site of inflamation or infection, the neutrophil recognizes the antigen and thru endocytosis the antigen is degraded. During this process the antigen and the neutrophil are often killed resulting in pus. |
|
|
Term
What is the primary function of eosinophils? |
|
Definition
Eosinophils are the primary responders to allergic reactions, parasitic infections, and are found in high numbers in areas where chronic inflammation tends to occur (ex. lamina propria of intenstinal tract) |
|
|
Term
What is the primary function of the basophil? |
|
Definition
After binding antibody secreted by a plasma cell, the basophil will release vasoactive agents. |
|
|
Term
What is the cell found in connective tissue which has a similar function to the basophil? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
What is the basic functional difference between a B and T Cell |
|
Definition
B Cells are involved in the production of circulating antibodies.
T Cells are involved in cell-mediated immunity. |
