Directions: ANSWER USING COMPLETE SENTENCES! Use the information you have been given to answer questions about: The Immune System
Level#1: The immune system defends against pathogens, or disease-causing substances. The immune system contains different kinds of cells and molecules that fight against pathogens in different ways. One type of cell that is part of the immune system is the white blood cell. For example, when a pathogen enters the body, the white cell finds it. They enter the tissue that is infected and attack the pathogen.
1. What happens when a pathogen enters the body?
2. What do white blood cells do when they find a pathogen?
3. What does the immune system do and what is one type of cell that is part of it?
Level#2: The immune system defends against pathogens, or disease-causing substances. The immune system contains different kinds of cells and molecules that fight against pathogens in different ways. One type of cell that is part of the immune system is the white blood cell. For example, when a pathogen enters the body, the white cell finds it. They enter the tissue that is infected and attack the pathogen. There are two special kinds of white blood cells ( T cells and B cells) called lymphocytes. They are part of the lymphatic system. They are also part of the immune system because they help the body fight disease. T cells identify pathogens. Then, they may attack the pathogens. T cells also attack the damaged body cells that the pathogens have already harmed.
1. Which two special kinds of cells are both part of the lymphatic system and the immune system?
2. What do T cells do to pathogens?
3. What do T cells do to damaged body cells?
Level#3: The immune system defends against pathogens, or disease-causing substances. The immune system contains different kinds of cells and molecules that fight against pathogens in different ways.

They are also part of the immune system because they help the body fight disease. T cells identify pathogens. Then, they may attack the pathogens. T cells also attack the damaged body cells that the pathogens have already harmed. Other times, T cells do not attack the pathogens directly. Instead, they stimulate B cells to produce substances called antibodies. Antibodies find certain pathogens and attach to them like a flag. This attachment makes it easier for other cells of the immune system, such as white blood cells, to identify pathogens. Then, the other cells find the pathogens and attack them.
1. Explain what T cells identify, and what they may attack.
2. Explain the other things that T cells do as part of the immune system.
3. Explain what else T cells do and what antibodies do as part of the immune system.

Directions: ANSWER USING COMPLETE SENTENCES! Use the information you have been given to answer questions about: The Lymphatic System
Level#1: As blood moves through the body, some fluid leaks into body tissues. As much as three quarts of fluid can leak into body tissue per day. The lymphatic system collects this fluid and returns it to the circulatory system. This clear fluid, called lymph, contains special white blood cells. These white blood cells, called lymphocytes, fight disease.
1. What is the clear fluid called?
2. What does the clear fluid contain?
3. What are the white blood cells called and what do they do?
Level#2: As blood moves through the body, some fluid leaks into body tissues. As much as three quarts of fluid can leak into body tissue per day. The lymphatic system collects this fluid and returns it to the circulatory system. This clear fluid, called lymph, contains special white blood cells. These white blood cells, called lymphocytes, fight disease. Lymph moves through vessels and special organs, including the tonsils, thymus, spleen, and lymph nodes. Lymph is filtered by the lymph nodes and tonsils. When you have an infection, your lymph nodes or tonsils can become larger.
1. Where does lymph move through?
2. What is lymph filtered by?
3. What happens when you have an infection?

These white blood cells, called lymphocytes, fight disease. Lymph moves through vessels and special organs, including the tonsils, thymus, spleen, and lymph nodes. Lymph is filtered by the lymph nodes and tonsils. When you have an infection, your lymph nodes or tonsils can become larger. They become filled with a large number of white blood cells that are fighting bacteria or virus causing your infection. The thymus gland helps certain white blood cells to grow. The spleen destroys damaged red blood cells.
1. Explain what happens to your lymph nodes and tonsils when you have an infection.
2. Explain what the thymus gland does.
3. Explain what the spleen does.

Directions: ANSWER USING COMPLETE SENTENCES! Use the information you have been given to answer questions about: Anemia, Varicose Veins, and Heart Defects
Level#1: Anemia, varicose veins, and heart defects are examples of circulatory system disorders. Anemia occurs when there are low levels of red blood cells in the body and the body's organs and tissues do not get enough oxygen. Varicose veins occur when a vein becomes swollen and the valves do not close properly and start to leak. A heart defect is when a person is born with a heart that is not developed properly and does not work well as a result.
1. Why is a heart defect a problem for a person who is born with it?
2. What problems does a person have when they have varicose veins?
3. What is the result of a person having anemia?
Level#2: Anemia, varicose veins, and heart defects are examples of circulatory system disorders. Anemia occurs when there are low levels of red blood cells in the body. Without the correct amount of red blood cells, the body's organs and tissues do not get enough oxygen and cannot work properly. Varicose veins occur when a vein becomes swollen and the valves do not close properly and start to leak. A heart defect is when a person is born with a heart that is not developed properly and does not work well as a result. Some types of heart defects can be corrected by surgery.
1. Why is a heart defect a problem for a person who is born with it?
2. Why do the veins become swollen if a person has varicose veins?
3. What happens when a person has low levels of red blood cells?
Level#3: Anemia, varicose veins, and heart defects are examples of circulatory system disorders. Anemia occurs when there are low levels of red blood cells in the body. Without the appropriate number of red blood cells, the body's organs and tissues do not get enough oxygen and cannot work properly. Varicose veins occur when a vein becomes swollen. This happens because the valves that move blood to the heart do not close properly and start to leak. A heart defect is an abnormality of the heart's structure or function. Heart defects are disorders that people are born with. Approximately 30,000 to 40,000 (or 1 in 1,000) children are born each year with a heart defect. Some types of heart defects can be corrected by surgery.
1. Approximately how many children are born each year with heart defects?
2. How can some types of heart defects be corrected?
3. Explain what makes varicose veins swollen.

A heart defect is when a person is born with a heart that is not developed properly and does not work well as a result.
1. Why is a heart defect a problem for a person who is born with it?
2. What problems does a person have when they have varicose veins?
3. What is the result of a person having anemia?
Level#2: Anemia, varicose veins, and heart defects are examples of circulatory system disorders. Anemia occurs when there are low levels of red blood cells in the body. Without the correct amount of red blood cells, the body's organs and tissues do not get enough oxygen and cannot work properly. Varicose veins occur when a vein becomes swollen and the valves do not close properly and start to leak. A heart defect is when a person is born with a heart that is not developed properly and does not work well as a result. Some types of heart defects can be corrected by surgery.
1. Why is a heart defect a problem for a person who is born with it?
2. Why do the veins become swollen if a person has varicose veins?
3. What happens when a person has low levels of red blood cells?
Level#3: Anemia, varicose veins, and heart defects are examples of circulatory system disorders. Anemia occurs when there are low levels of red blood cells in the body. Without the appropriate number of red blood cells, the body's organs and tissues do not get enough oxygen and cannot work properly. Varicose veins occur when a vein becomes swollen. This happens because the valves that move blood to the heart do not close properly and start to leak. A heart defect is an abnormality of the heart's structure or function. Heart defects are disorders that people are born with. Approximately 30,000 to 40,000 (or 1 in 1,000) children are born each year with a heart defect. Some types of heart defects can be corrected by surgery.
1. Approximately how many children are born each year with heart defects?
2. How can some types of heart defects be corrected?
3. Explain what makes varicose veins swollen.
