The
lymphatic system removes excess fluid from the body’s tissue and returned in to
the circulatory system. It also help the body to fight infections. It consists
of lymph vessels, lymph nodes, and associated lymphoid organs such as the
spleen and tonsils. Lymph vessels form a
network of tubes that extend all over the body. From lymph capillaries the
smallest vessels-lymph flows in to larger vessels called lymphatics, which are
studded with nodes. These modes are collection of lymph tissue that act where
many scavenging white blood cells ingest bacteria and other foreign matter and
debris. When an infections occurs, specialized white blood cells are released
from the lymph nodes to fight the infections.
