Answer:

The correct answer would be Skeletal muscles.

Explanation:

The lymph is travel in the body in its own lymphatic vessels in a one-way journey to the subclavian veins present at the base of the neck from the interstitial spaces.

The lymphatic system does not contain a heart to pump lymphatic fluid, it's an upward circulation that depends on the motions of the skeletal muscles and joint pumps.

Thus, The correct answer would be Skeletal muscles.
