What organ in the lymphatic system is less important as we age?
Flygirl58
The lymphatic or lymphoid organ that decreases in size and in function as a person ages is the thymus gland. The thymus gland, which is situated in the chest area, is important because it plays a major role in the immune system. It is in this gland that T-cells are produced.
