the fluid is called lymph which isn't considered blood because it doesn't have haemoglobin, and isn't considered tissue fluid because it lacks certain substances... so they call it lymph and it gets mixed with blood in the end anyway...
It is called lymph. It originates from the blood. First a clearish fluid exits the microvascular exchange blood vessels (the blood but minus red blood cells, platelets and plasma proteins) and this is known as interstitial fluid. This fluid enters the initial lymphatic vessels of the lymphatic system and is then known as lymph.
Lymph is the correct answer. I know this from my Glencoe textbook :) xx
lymph is the correct answer
Hydrostatic pressure

Lymph is a tissue that diffuses into the lymphatic capillaries
Tissue Fluid
endothelium
lymph nodes
Lymphatic tissue.
Endocrine glands
The sequence of fluid flow is blood capillaries.... interstitial space or interstitial fluid..... lymphatic capillaries.... lymphatic vessels.... lymphatic ducts..... junction of the internal jugular and subclavian veins. Then what helps this whole sequence is the skeletal muscle pump and the respiratory pump.
The capillaries are the starting point of the one-way lymphatic system. Lymph capillaries originate in tissues and drain any excess tissue fluid that has not been reabsorbed into the bloodstream and move it into lymph veins. This prevents swelling or edema (collection of fluid in the tissues).
Lymphatic system
Small spherical bodies made up of lymphatic tissue are called lymph nodes.
While surrounding tissues it is called interstitial fluid. Once it enters the lymphatic system it is called lymphatic fluid.
