Can the lymphatic system be influenced by atmospheric pollution?
The lymphatic system is a system that fights infection in the body. Lymph vessels carry lymphatic fluid. Lymphatic fluid is a fluid that is full of lymphocytes. Lymphocytes are also known as white blood cells. White blood cells are a main component of the immune system. The lymphatic system fights microorganisms, like bacteria, that are polluting the internal environment. I'm not sure if atmospheric pollution directly carries microorganisms that affect the body's lymphatic system, but atmospheric pollution can certainly disrupt or negatively affect the body's immune system. Environmental pollution is a definite stressor on the body. If it is a great enough stress, it can be a drain on the central nervous system. If the central nervous system is negatively affected, then it is ABSOLUTLY possible for any other organ or system to be negatively affected. The central nervous system controls and manages everything. If it is overwhelmed, then some other function is as well.

The digestive system also contributes to our immune system, with the HCl in the stomach killing some pathogens, bacteria germs, as well as the symbiosis between beneficial and detrimental bacteria in the large intestine having a major influence on our immune system.

How is your cardiovascular and lymphatic system related?
no
How does lymph return to the cardiovascular system?
When blood travels through the capillaries in the cardiovascular system, some fluids leak out and move into the lymphatic system. This system is a carrier of vein-like vessels delivering the fluids back to the bloodstream. Once inside of the lymphatic system, this fluid is called lymph. Glucose, water, and white blood cells are consistent in lymph. Lymph moves through the lymphatic system passing through knobs of tissue called lymph nodes. These lymph nodes filter bacteria and other disease-causing microorganisms. Lymph nodes enlarge when fighting off an infection.
How does the lymphatic system work to maintain homeostasis?
The lymphatic system has a few primary functions in maintaining homeostasis. First of all, it helps transport macrophages and other cells that are involved in the immune response. It is also responsible for maintaining blood and tissue volume by monitoring the interstitial fluid and it also absorbs some fatty acids and triglycerides.
