Detailed explanation-1: -Lymph enters a lymph node through several afferent lymphatic vessels. It then passes through the cortex, paracortex and medulla of the node, and exits on the opposite side through a single efferent lymphatic vessel.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lymphatic vessels: Lymphatic vessels are the network of capillaries (microvessels) and a large network of tubes located throughout your body that transport lymph away from tissues. Lymphatic vessels collect and filter lymph (at the nodes) as it continues to move toward larger vessels called collecting ducts.
Detailed explanation-3: -As lymph capillaries collect interstitial fluid from tissues, the pressure in the lymph capillaries grows. This increasing pressure moves the lymph fluid forward toward the heart. Everywhere in your body, your lymphatic capillaries collect lymph and move it into larger lymphatic vessels.
Detailed explanation-4: -Lymphatic capillaries-> lymphatic collecting vessels-> lymphatic trunks-> lymphatic ducts.
