Question

LYMPHATIC SYSTEMS :

1. Describe the anatomical structure/organs of lymphatics

2.physiologic function/s of lymphatics

3.how circulatory helps lymphatics in maintaining homeostasis

4. How respiratory helps lymphatic..

5. How digestive helps lymphatics ...

6. How urinary helps lymphatics ...

7. How reproductive helps lymphatics ...

Please, I want a short solution, for example, CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM- is an organ system composing of the heart and blood vessels as its major organs in which its major function is transportation, using blood as the transport vehicle that carries nutrients, cell wastes, hormones and many other substances vital for body homeostasis. As cardiovascular do these functions the lymphatic system helps in picking up leaked fluid and plasma proteins and returns them to the circulation on which its immune system cells protect cardiovascular organs from invading pathogens, while the Respiratory system carries out the gas exchange: loads oxygen and unloads carbon dioxide. Respiratory pumps also aid venous return that helps cardiovascular to maintain the normal volume of circulating blood while the urinary system helps regulate blood volume and pressure. In addition, the digestive system provides nutrients to the blood including iron and vitamin B for RBC and hemoglobin formation on which waste products are being carried away by the urinary system. Moreover, as the cardiovascular system transport hormone, estrogen maintains vascular health in women which is one of the important hormones produced by the reproductive system.

Answer 1

1. Lyphatic consists of lymphatic vessels and lymphatic tissues.The lymphatic sustem consist of circulatory network of vessela and lymphoid tissues and cells . Eg. lymphatic tissues found in spleen,Thymus,throat,lumph nodes etc
2. The major functions of lymphatic system is to removal and filteration of fluids(intestinal) from the tissues,Transportation of fatty acids,drains lymph from different tissues of the body and empty the same into the subclavian veins at their junctions with internal jugular vein.
3. Extra amount of fluid left in the tissue space by capillary filtration is taken up by lymphatics and returned back to the circulation.Thus lymphatics prevent accumulation of excess free fluid in the interstitial space,and at the same time contribute to water content of plasma to some extent. Thus maintains a balance of fluid between blood and tissues.
4. In lungs the lymphatic system controls the fluid haemostasis and also helps in defence mechanism.The lympahtic system helps to remove excess fluid accumulated in the lungs to circulatory system.
5. As its main function,it remove excess fluids ,It helps in fats and fats soluble vitamins from digestive system.
