Detailed explanation-1: -The lymph nodes and other lymphatic structures like the spleen and thymus hold special white blood cells called lymphocytes.

Detailed explanation-3: -The blood cells are red because of the interaction between iron and oxygen. So the colour of blood is due to the presence of haemoglobin in RBCS since RBCs are absent in lymph it is colourless.

There are hundreds of lymph nodes found throughout the body. They are connected to one another by lymph vessels.
