Detailed explanation-1: -The spleen is the largest lymphatic organ in the body. Surrounded by a connective tissue capsule, which extends inward to divide the organ into lobules, the spleen consists of two types of tissue called white pulp and red pulp. The white pulp is lymphatic tissue consisting mainly of lymphocytes around arteries.
Detailed explanation-2: -Spleen. The spleen is located in the abdominal (tummy) area on the left side, just under the diaphragm. It is the largest of our lymphatic organs. The spleen does many things as it filters and monitors our blood.
Detailed explanation-3: -Secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) include lymph nodes (LNs), spleen, Peyer’s patches (PPs) and mucosal tissues-the nasal associated lymphoid tissue (NALT), adenoids, and tonsils.
