CHECK FOR UNDERSTANDING

You will answer and rationalize this by yourself. This will be recorded as your quiz. One (1) point will be
given to the correct answer and another one (1) point for the correct ratio. Superimpositions or erasures
in your answer/ratio is not allowed. You are given 20 minutes for this activity.

Multiple Choice

1. The lymphatic system plays a role in maintaining fluid balance within the body by:
a. adding lymph to GI tract secretions. d. carrying excess fluid to the kidneys to be
b. returning interstitial fluid to the plasma. excreted.
c. transporting lymph from tissues to the liver. e. actively absorbing fluid from the blood.
B.
ANSWER: ________
The lymphatic system is vital in fluid balance. The extra 3 L of fluid enters the lymphatic capillaries and
RATIO:______________________________________________________________________________

becomes lymph. It passes through the lymphatic vessels to return to the blood.

b. Blood flow is decreased to the area e. Complement attracts phagocytes to the area
c. Vascular permeability is decreased
ANSWER: ________ADE
All are events that occur during the inflammation, except options B and C. Due to the increased vascular permeability,
