Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The thoracic duct starts near the bottom of your spine. It collects lymph from your abdomen, lower chest and pelvis. The lymphatic ducts empty the lymph into your subclavian veins. These veins, located below your collarbone, join to form the superior vena cava.
