ANSWER:
1. Receives lymph from the body - subclavian vein.
RATIONAL: This vein is the from the superior vena cava and continued as Axillary vein and brachial vein and also radial vein and ulnar vein of the both the side of the body and drains the deoxygenated blood to the heart.

7. Traps and destroy inhaled microbes - Tonsil
Rational: It is located in the throat when we inhale, we consume the oxygen as a air, it will have some germs or any dust particles, tonsil removes it before it reaches the lungs.
