| What is lymph? | fluid derived from blood |
| what is interstitial fluid? | a solution which bathes & surrounds the cell. Component of extracellular fluid. |
| what is the purpose of the lymphatic system? | drains excess fluid, transport lumph and carries out immune response. |
| Where does lymph go? | Lymph enters the lymph vessels by fitration through pores in capillaries. |
