Spleen filter blood, lymph node filter lymph. Hence given statement is FALSE

<u>Explanation: </u>

An organ that is found in all vertebrates is spleen. The shape of spleen is same as that of the structure of a Larger Lymph node. A prime blood filter is spleen.  

A spleen mainly takes off the older red blood cells and it also holds some blood as reserve which is more important in cases like hemorrhagic shock.

A faculty member asks a student to identify the appropriate term for the movement of a solute from an area of greater to lesser
alexandr1967 [171]

In medical sciences, the movement of solid particles (solute) from an area of greater to lesser concentration is called by DIFFUSION.

A random passage of particles always occurs from a place of higher concentration to another of lower concentration. This happens until the distribution of the particles is uniform. From the moment the equilibrium is reached, as exchanges of substances between two media become proportional.

The passage of substances through cell membranes involves several mechanisms, among which we can mention:

✴ Passive transport (no loss of energy)

➡ Osmosis;

➡ Simple diffusion;

➡ Facilitated diffusion.

✴ Active transport (with loss of energy)

➡ Sodium and potassium pump

✴ Endocytosis and exocytosis

➡ Pinocytosis

➡ Phagocytosis
