Accepts electrons from cytochrome c, ultimately transferring them to oxygen, forming H2O. in the process, 2 protons are pumped across the membrane. Complex IV is a terminal oxidoreductase, meaning that it transferes the elctrons to the terminal electron acceptor, which, in this case, is O2.
White blood cells called lymphocytes originate in the bone marrow but migrate to parts of the lymphatic system such as the lymph nodes, spleen, and thymus. There are two main types of lymphatic cells, T cells and B cells.
Lymph nodes filter lymph of harmful pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. The nodes also filter out cellular waste, dead cells, and cancerous cells. The filtered lymph from all areas of the body is eventually returned to the blood through a blood vessel near the heart.-cells and T-cells are lymphocytes found in lymph nodes and lymph tissues. When B-cell lymphocytes become activated due to the presence of a particular antigen, they create antibodies that are specific to that specific antigen. The antigen is tagged as an intruder and labeled for destruction by other immune cells.
