AP-2 Lab 06 – Lab Report Name: Section: Unit 4 Lab Report: Exercise 6: The Lymphatic System Purpose: What was the purpose of doing this exercise? The purpose of this exercise is to learn about the lymphatic system and how it works and helps the human body. Why we need it and the components associated with the lymphatic system. Activity 1: Microscopic Anatomy of Lymphatic Structures Observations: Sketch of Reticular Connective Tissue Slide (Lymph Node). Describe the structures

In the article “Why You Should Drink Distilled Water” Dr. David Williams explains that as the process is ongoing pathogens are being killed. He states‚ “The boiling action kills bacteria and other pathogens‚ and as the steam rises‚ it leaves behind waste material‚ minerals‚ heavy metals‚ and other heavier contaminants” demonstrating how even though

are called pathogens. Bacteria and viruses may reproduce rapidly inside the body and may produce poisons (toxins) that make us feel ill. Bacteria are very small cells which can rapidly reproduce in your body making you feel ill by damaging your body’s cells and producing toxinsViruses & bacteria Viruses & bacteria B1.1 B1.1 . Viruses are NOT cells and much smaller than bacteria and damage the cells in which they reproduce. White blood cells help to defend against pathogens by: 1. Engulfing

Cause diseases by reproducing rapidly once inside the body (Splitting). They produce Toxins * Viruses- Take over the cells as they reproduce‚ damaging and destroying them‚ very rarely produces toxins. * How the body protects from Pathogens: -Skin covers body and acts as a barrier. -Scabs-

INFECTION CONTROL Pathogen- Infectious agent Colonization- If microorganism is present or invades host‚ grows and/or multiplies but does not cause infection. Communicable disease- if infectious disease can be transmitted from one person to another. -Symptomatic-if pathogens multiply and cause clinical signs/symptoms. -Asymptomatic- if no s/s are present *CHAIN OF INFECTION: 1. An infectious agent or pathogen 2. A reservoir or source for pathogen growth 3. A portal of exit from the

The subject has been chosen in part because it is within the tutors subject knowledge and specialism‚ the subject is also relevant to current media interest due to the increase in hospital acquired infection and the resistance of pathogens to antibiotics‚ therefore although this presentation is pertaining to Veterinary Surgery protocol‚ it is very relevant to all medical type establishment and will also be of current interest to many learners including those with no prior medical training

Our bodies provide an excellent environment for many microbes which can make us ill once they are inside us. Our bodies need to stop most microbes getting in and deal with any microbes which do get in. Vaccination can be used to prevent infection. Candidates should use
