Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The right lymphatic duct receives lymph from the right side of the head, neck and thorax and right upper limb. It drains into the systemic venous system at the junction of the right internal jugular and right subclavian vein or right brachiocephalic vein within the neck.

Detailed explanation-2: -The various efferent lymphatic vessels in the body eventually converge to form two major lymphatic channels: the right lymphatic duct and the thoracic duct. The right lymphatic duct drains most of the right upper quadrant of the body, including the right upper trunk, right upper extremity, and right head and neck.

Detailed explanation-3: -Collecting ducts: Lymphatic vessels empty the lymph into the right lymphatic duct and left lymphatic duct (also called the thoracic duct). These ducts connect to the subclavian vein, which returns lymph to your bloodstream.
