2. Lymphatic System

As mentioned, lymph is found circulating throughout the body in a system that is known as the lymphatic system. The system is named for the fluid known as lymph that helps make the whole thing work as well as it does. This system consists of a network of lymph vessels, and this network looks very similar to the network that transports blood around our body.

In addition to lymph vessels are also a number of glands and organs that make up the lymphatic system. All of these combine to help to process the lymph passing through them, dealing with pathogens and removing waste.
