Lab 18 Lymphatic System & Finish Arteries & VeinsLab 18 Lymphatic System & Finish Arteries & Veins1. Study a slide of a lymph node and identify (p. 749):a. cortex- nodules- germinal centersb. b. medulla- cords- sinusesc. lymphocytes2. Study a slide of a lymph vessel and identify:a. valves3. Study a slide of the spleen and identify (p. 751):a. capsule- is mainly collagenous fibrous connective tissue but there is smooth muscle in it, too. This allows the spleen to contract and eject stored erythrocytes when needed.b. white pulp- consists of collections of lymphocytes arranged alongside blood vessels c. red pulp- fills the bulk of the spleen's volumed. trabeculae- subdivide the spleen's interior volume. They arise from and are continuous with the capsule. 4. Study a slide of the thymus and identify (p. 748):a. cortex and medulla5. Study a slide of the ileum and locate the Peyer’s patches (p. 746):6. Study models, charts and figures to locate the following groups of lymph structures (p):a. lymphatic collecting vesselsb. lymphatic ducts- right- thoracicc. lymph nodes- cervical- axillary- inguinald. individual lymph nodes in cat, models, and diagrams7. Be able to identify the other organs of the lymphatic system (p.746):a. spleenb. thymusc. pharyngeal tonsild. palatine tonsilse. lingual tonsils8. Be able to recognize the spleen in the
