allergic reactions like itching and localized swelling. The body may also react by causing calcium tissue to be deposited around the worm‚ walling it off and eventually causing its death. In humans‚ the mature worm lives tightly coiled in the lymphatic vessels where they reproduce. The female holds the fertilized eggs in her body. Later the embryos‚ called microfilariae‚ are discharged alive. An interesting feature of these worms is the periodic swarming of the microfilariae in the bloodstream

Lymphatic and Immunity Test--Essay Question #2 Recently‚ the subject of discussion in class was about the lymphatic system and its association to immunity functions. The relationship between the lymph‚ interstitial fluid and plasma is both fascinating and complex. It is an integral part of our bodies’ immune system working as “…a network of organs lymph nodes‚ lymph ducts‚ and lymph vessels that make and move lymph from tissues to the bloodstream.” (https://www.nim.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/ article/002247

Difference in lymphatic function in health and disease state The lymphatic vascular system has an important role in tissue pressure and immune system. The lymphatic system also contributes to a number of diseases such as lymphedema‚ cancer metastasis and many other different inflammatory disorders. Lymphatic obstruction is a blockage of the lymph vessels which drain fluid from tissues through your body. Also allows immune cells to travel where they are needed. Lymphatic obstruction may cause

LYMPHATIC SYSTEM * Carries fluid in one direction‚ from the tissues to the circulatory system. Functions of the Lymphatic System 1. Fluid Balance * Collecting excess fluid and particulate matter from tissues and depositing them in the bloodstream. 2. Fat Absorption * Absorbs fats and other substance from the digestive tract through lymphatic vessels called lacteals located in the lining of the small intestine. * Fat enters the lacteals and pass through the lymphatic vessels
