Detailed explanation-1: -Spleen. Receives lymph from most of the body. Thoracic duct. Small organs intimately associated with lymphatic vessels.
Detailed explanation-2: -Therefore, the Pineal gland is the smallest organ in the body. Note: Pineal gland also plays a role in the regulation of female hormone levels, and it affects fertility and the menstrual cycle. Its shape resembles a pine cone hence the name.
Detailed explanation-3: -Some lymph nodes are clustered under the skin, particularly in the neck, armpits, and groin. Other lymph nodes are deep within the body, for example inside the abdomen. The lymphatic vessels drain into collecting ducts, which empty their contents into the two subclavian veins, located under the collarbones.
