Components

(generated)

Component items:

• Protector sensory data (protector-sensory-data)
  • Protector - cranial meninges (cranial-meninges -> LPC.PN.SG.JUG): primary function of the meninges and of the cerebrospinal fluid is to protect the central nervous system
  • Protector - tentorium cerebelli dura mater visceral receptors (tentorium-cerebelli-dura-matter -> LPC.PN.SG.TRG): visceral sensation of tentorium cerebelli and supratentorial falx cerebri
• Protector tonsils (protector-tonsils)
  • Protector - palatine tonsil (palatine-tonsil -> LPC.PN.SG.TRG): providing antibodies against illnesses and diseases such as diphtheria
  • Protector - lingual tonsil (lingual-tonsil -> LPC.PN.SG.TRG): production of antibodies that are part of natural immune system
  • Protector - pharyngeal tonsils (LAC.PN.PSYM.SPG -> pharyngeal-tonsils): defense mechanism against air infections, produce white blood cells which are essential for immunity
• Protector mucous glands (protector-mucous-glands)
  • Protector - hard palate mucous gland (LAC.PN.PSYM.SPG -> hard-palate-mucosal-gland): produce mucous fluid; lubrication, immunological defence
  • Protector - soft palate mucous gland (LAC.PN.PSYM.SPG -> soft-palate-mucosal-gland): produce mucous fluid; lubrication, immunological defence
