Introduction:
In vertebrates lymphatic system is a one-way system which carries cell and fluid back to blood system. The lymphatic system is a subsystem of circulatory system. It consists of tissues, organs and complex network of vessels. The major role of lymphatic system is to maintain fluid balance in the body.
