Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Lymph nodes mainly store immune cells that help the body fight infection but are also places where these cells can be made. They also filter the lymph fluid and remove foreign material such as bacteria and cancer cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -The lymph nodes filter lymph fluid as it flows through them, trapping bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances, which are then destroyed by the lymphocytes. The lymph system is also an important part of the immune system, the body’s defence against disease.
