Question
Chapter 21.1, Problem 2WDYL
Summary Introduction
To determine:
That how the fluid enter and becomes trapped in the lymphatic capillaries.
Concept introduction:
The lymphatic system is a part of the circulatory system and immune system that have interconnected lymphatic vessels which contain a clear fluid called lymph. Lymphatic system comprises cells, tissues and other organs which defend our body against infections and disease. It is also responsible for the transport of lymph-a clear fluid which is found outside the cells.
