IMMUNOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Protects your body against foreign invaders: The lymphatic system is part of the immune system. It produces and releases lymphocytes (white blood cells) and other immune cells that monitor and then destroy the foreign invaders-such as bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi-that may enter your body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Together, the blood, heart, and blood vessels form the circulatory system. The lymphatic system (lymph, lymph nodes and lymph vessels) supports the circulatory system by draining excess fluids and proteins from tissues back into the bloodstream, thereby preventing tissue swelling.
