The lymphatic structure that closely parallell veins are called?
A
Capillaries
B
Lymph
C
Lymph Vessels
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Lymphatic system is called as a parallel system to venous system because they both transport body fluids. Lymph vessels are parellel to circulatory vessels in their paths through the body. Lymph vessels are the part of an open ended system that collects lymph fluid from tissues and transfer it into venous system.

Detailed explanation-2: -Lymph vessels. The lymphatic structures that closely parallel veins are called. lymph nodes. The tiny, oval shaped lymph structures located throughout the body are known as. thoracic duct.

Detailed explanation-3: -The lymphatic system includes lymph vessels, lymph fluid, and lymph tissues and organs (lymph nodes, tonsils, spleen, thymus, and the thoracic duct). The lymphatic system is parallel to and works in concert with the venous system.

Detailed explanation-4: -· Lymphatic vessels: Lymphatic vessels are the network of capillaries (microvessels) and a large network of tubes located throughout your body that transport lymph away from tissues. Lymphatic vessels collect and filter lymph (at the nodes) as it continues to move toward larger vessels called collecting ducts.

Detailed explanation-5: -Structure. Lymphatic vessels are tube-like structures that carry fluid (called lymph) away from the tissues to deliver it back into the blood’s circulation. Unlike blood vessels that circulate blood in a continuous, closed-loop system, lymphatics carry fluid in one direction.
