Structure Overview
Look at Image 2 and Image 3. These are illustrations of all the cells, structures, and organs involved in protecting you from pathogens and are the immune/lymphatic system structures.
Image 2 shows 5 different types of white blood cells that we will learn about and Image 3 shows many organs and structures of the lymphatic system that also play a role in this protection.
You will be responsible for identifying these structures and describing their functions.
Check your understanding:
