Answer:
The given blanks can be filled with white pulp and red pulp.
Explanation:
In the lymphatic system, the spleen is considered as the largest organ. It is situated in the upper left part of the abdominal cavity, the main function of the spleen is to filter blood containing the destructed cells, pathogens like viruses and bacteria, and cellular debris.
The spleen generates and develops the mature immune cells, which possess the tendency of finding and eliminating the pathogens. The white pulp of the spleen comprises the immune cells, that is, the B and T lymphocytes, which help in fighting against the pathogens.
On the other hand, the red pulp of the spleen comprises connective tissue called the cords of Billroth, and various splenic sinusoids, which are filled with blood, providing it a red appearance. Its main function is to filter the blood containing microbes, pathogens, and worn-out or the defective RBCs.
ABI means Ankle-Brachial Index. ABI is a test used to diagnose peripheral artery
disease. The ABI compares
blood pressure in the ankle to blood pressure in the arm, shows how well blood is flowing in the
limbs and indicates if there is any or no blockage or rigid arteries. The amount of blockage establishes
the level of peripheral artery disease.

Photosynthesis
Uses carbon dioxide
One class of phospholipids, the phosphoglycerides,are composed by three parts that define this type of lipid:
- backbone of glycerol
- two long-chain fatty acids
-phosphoric acid
- and one organic group
Sphingolipids are similar in shape but they have a different component. Instead of having glycerol, which is the case for phosphoglycerides, they use sphingosine.
To form a Sphingolipid are necessary:
-sphingosine as the backbone
-phosphate
-an organic group
