Answer;
Ducts
Right subclavian vein
Left subclavian vein
The purified lymph, with lymphocytes and antibodies added, returns to the Ducts when it leaves the lymphatic ducts. the right lymphatic duct empties the purified lymph into the right subclavian vein, and the thoracic duct empties into the left subclavian vein.
Step-by-step explanation;
- Lymph is a thin, watery fluid composed of intercellular fluid. The fluid circulates through the lymphatic system and is responsible for the removal of interstitial fluid from tissues.
- During circulation, the small, open ended lymph vessel known as lymphatic capillaries pick up the lymph at the tissues throughout the body. These capillaries join together to form larger lymphatic vessel that passes through the lymph nodes. At the lymph nodes, several substances such as carbon, cancer cells, pathogens and dead blood cells are filtered out.
- Other function of lymph include; transport and absorption of fatty acids and the transport of white blood cells from the lymph nodes.
