Introduction
• Drain interstitial fluid from tissue spaces– Prevent edema
• Transport digested fat to blood– Lacteals: special lymphatics in small intestine– Chyle: milky lymph in lacteals
• Develop immunities
• Produce lymphocytes
![Page 5: THE LYMPHATIC SYSTEM Chapter 15. Introduction Transports lymph through lymphatics Lymphatics: lymph capillaries and vessels Controls body fluid Destroys.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022033105/56649d205503460f949f48ef/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Lymphatic Vessels
• Lymph capillaries: blind-end tubes
• Lymph capillaries are located between cells
• Lymph capillaries unite to form lymphatics
• Lymphatics converge into two main channels– Thoracic duct and right lymphatic duct

Lymph Nodes
• Found along lengths of lymphatics
• Efferent: exit lymph node at the hilum
• Afferent: enter lymph node at various locations
• Trabeculae: divide the node into compartments
