Apologia Gen Science Module#15 Lymphatic, Endocrine & Urinary system
(1) READ p. 369-371, The Lymphatic System
How the lymphatic system works
The lymph system cleans out organisms and chemicals that it recognizes as disease-causing.
Body fluid is called lymph while it is in the lymphatic system.
Lymph flows in one direction - toward the heart.
Where your lymph nodes and lymph vessels are located.
The yellow spots are the nodes, and the white lines are the vessels.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(2) READ p. 372-375, Lymph Nodes
Swollen lymph nodes and sore throat?
Here's why.
The lymphatic system is composed of vessels lying next to the capillaries.
The lymph nodes clean the lymph before returning it to the body.
What to do if you're stopped up or have swollen lymph nodes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(3) READ 375b-377, Tears
The lacrimal glands produce tears that run through tiny tear ducts, then flow across the eyes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(4) 378-381, The Urinary System
Although the lymphatic system cleans out things it recognizes as disease-causing, the kidneysonly clean out chemicals that become dangerous to the body when they reach certain levels.
See how the kidneys filter out some things (through nephrons) to keep them from reaching toxic levels, and let proper amounts be reabsorbed into the bloodstream.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(5) READ 382-384, The Endocrine System
Hormones are released by endocrine glands, sometimes just called glands.
►The hypothalamus controls the pituitary gland (both are types of endocrine glands).
Both are located below the brain.
The pituitary gland is often referred to as the "master endocrine gland" since the hormones it makes control many other endocrine glands in the body.
Location and Function of the Endocrine glands
Animation of insulin and glucose.
Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas.
The pancreas, in addition to being a digestive organ, is also an endocrine gland.
Slower, more detailed explanation of insulin and glucose.

Other glands produce different hormones.
These ↓ are also controlled by the pituitary gland, the "master endocrine gland."
►Adrenal glands -- "adjacent" means next to, and "renal" refers to the kidneys. Adrenal glandssit on top of the kidneys. This is also where we get the word adrenaline.
►Thyroid gland -- affects the basal metabolic rate.

Italy 1861
The Leopard DVD Making its long-awaited U.S. home video debut, Luchino Visconti's The Leopard (II Gattopardo) is an epic on the grandest possible scale. The film recreates, with nostalgia, drama, and opulence, the tumultuous years of Italy's Risorgimento--when the aristocracy lost its grip and the middle classes rose and formed a unified, democratic Italy. Burt Lancaster stars as the aging prince watching his culture and fortune wane in the face of a new generation, represented by his upstart nephew (Alain Delon) and his beautiful fiancee (Claudia Cardinale). Awarded the Palme d'Or at the 1963 Cannes Film Festival, The Leopard translates Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa's novel, and the alternate English-language version released in America in a newly restored special edition.
