Detailed explanation-1: -Lymph nodes: Lymph nodes are bean-shaped glands that monitor and cleanse the lymph as it filters through them. The nodes filter out the damaged cells and cancer cells. These lymph nodes also store lymphocytes and other immune system cells that attack and destroy bacteria and other harmful substances in the fluid.
Detailed explanation-2: -In the body, lymphatic vessels drain tissues of interstitial fluid (ISF), which contains waste products such as cellular debris and toxic molecules.
Detailed explanation-3: -The lymph nodes filter the lymph fluid as it passes through them. White blood cells, such as B cells and T cells, attack any bacteria or viruses they find in the lymph. When cancer cells break away from a tumour, they may become stuck in one or more of the nearest lymph nodes.
