Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Lymph enters the node (arrow) through afferent lymphatic vessel(s) (Af). It then moves to subcapsular sinus (SCS), which can then go to either B cell follicles (BF) and T cell cortex (TC) through central path, or directly to medullary sinuses (MS) through peripheral path.
Detailed explanation-2: -There is no pump in the lymphatic system like the heart in the cardiovascular system. The pressure gradients to move lymph through the vessels come from the skeletal muscle action, respiratory movement, and contraction of smooth muscle in vessel walls.
