GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The lymphatic system is the part of the immune system because it synthesizes immune cells, such as plasma cells, lymphocytes and monocytes. This system also enables the flow of gases across the body. This system plays a role in transportation of fats but it does not absorb fats.

Detailed explanation-2: -The resulting mixture of lymphatic fluid and fats – a milky-white substance known as ‘chyle’ – is carried through the lymphatic network and into the largest of the lymphatic vessels – the thoracic duct and thenceforth directly into the heart. It is only at this point that the fats we have eaten enter the bloodstream.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are three primary functions of the lymphatic system: first is the maintenance of fluid balance, second is the facilitation of the absorption of dietary fats from the gastrointestinal tract to the bloodstream for metabolism or storage, and third is the enhancement and facilitation of the immune system.

Detailed explanation-4: -managing the fluid levels in the body. reacting to bacteria. dealing with cancer cells. dealing with cell products that otherwise would result in disease or disorders. absorbing some of the fats in our diet from the intestine.
