what is the difference between lymph and chyle

Expert Solution

Lymph is the COLOURLESS or pale fluid that circulates throughout lymphatic system. It is formed when interstial fluid collected in lymphatic capillaries and then transported to lymphatic vessels to lymph node and cleaned by lymphocytes.

It captures the bacteria from the circulation to the lymph node where they are destroyed

It also helps in absorption of fatty acid and transport of fat and chyle in circulatory system

Also helps in production of immune cell lymphocytes.

While chyle is the WHITE colour fluid consist of free fatty acids and chylomicron and also lymph which helps it in transportation.

Chyle is formed in the intestine during the digestion process of fatty acid and it is taken by lymphatic vessels called lacteals.

So lymph is colourless basically or pale kind of fluid in circulatory system use to capture bacteria from body

While chyle is the white fluid consist of fatty acid and chylomicron for digestion of fatty acid and its flow with the help of lymph.
