Question 25

lymphatic flow

Answer 25

tissue fluid leaves the cellular interstitial spaces and becomes lymph; as it enters a lymphatic capillary, it merges with other capillaries to form an afferent lymphatic vessel; which enters a lymph node where lymph is filtered. Then it leaves the node via an efferent lymphatic vessel which travels to there nodes, then merges with other vessels to form a lymphatic trunk, which merges with other trunks and joins a collecting duct either the right lymphatic or the thoracic, which empties into a subclavian vein where the lymph is returned to the blood stream.
