Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -The correct answer is A. Lymphatic vessels pass through lymph nodes. This allows the lymph to be filtered as it travels through the lymph nodes. The filtration system in the lymph nodes removes antibodies and pathogens and stimulates the immune responses as needed.
Detailed explanation-3: -There are three types of lymphatic vessels: Initial lymphatics also known as capillaries; Collecting vessels which transport lymph through lymph nodes; and. Ducts which connect to the subclavian veins (the veins which connect directly to the heart) to return lymph to blood circulation.
