Lymph is a fluid. It flows through the lymphatic vessels by one way valves which allows lymph move way through lymphatic system. Subclavian suction, and skeletal muscle pumps help to propel the lymph through the lymphatic vessels.

What organs are found in the lymphatic system?
Lymph vessels,lymph nodes,spleen,
How does lymph move through the lymph vessels without a pump?
The contradiction and relaxation of skeletal muscles moves lymph trough the lymph vessels.
Where do lymph vessels return intercellular fluid to?
Lymph Vessels return intercellular fluid to the veins.
The method by which lymph is pushed through the lymph vessels is?
The contraction of certain muscles squeezes the lymph vessels, pumping lymph throughout the system
What structures filter lymph?
tiny vessels
What vessel does the lymph exit through?
A lymph vessel. They are similar in function to blood vessels. However the lymph is moved along the vessel by muscle contractions rather than by the heart pumping.
What describes how lymph flows through the lymphatic system?
Skeletal muscles squeeze the lymph through lymph vessels. Valves in the vessels prevent backflow
What is the term for Stationary lymph tissue along the path of lymph vessels?
lymph nodes
What is the small filtering structures to which afferent lymph vessels carry lymph?
Lymph nodes
What is the flow of lymph into and out of the lymph nodes?
Lymph travels in lymph vessels. There are varying sizes of lymph vessel, just like with blood vessels. The vessels generally are found just below the skin or in the deeper levels of the skin.
Do lymph nodes filter lymph?
lymph capillary Lymph fluid is filtered in lymph nodes. Lymph nodes are along lymph vessels which that run along blood vessels. Lymph vessels draw in interstitial fluid (fluid between cells) and it them becomes lymph fluid. Lymph nodules are in connective tissue in place of high traffic and does not function as a filter because it's not along a lymph vessel.
What are the lymphatic vessels?
Lymph capillaries
