GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -an enlarged pouch-like structure at the start of the thoracic duct, which serves as a storage area for purified lymph before this lymph returns to the bloodstream. specialized lymphatic capillaries, hat pick up digested lipids in the small intestine.

Detailed explanation-2: -The lower extremities, left upper extremity, left head, left hemithorax, and subdiaphragmatic organs drain into the cisterna chyli and transit through the thoracic duct emptying into the left venous angle, near the junction of the left internal jugular and subclavian veins.

Detailed explanation-3: -Most fats and fatty acids are actually absorbed in the lymphatic system first before being transported into the blood. The lining of your small intestine consists of villi, tiny, finger-shaped structures that project out. In the middle of each villi are tiny lymph vessels called lymph capillaries, or lacteals.
