Structurally:
o They all have a capsule
o They are rounded organs with an internal parenchyma of lymphoid cells
o They are placed strategically about the body in order to maximally filter air/blood/lymph - see functional similarities
Functionally:
o All of these organs are involved in the immune system
o Their role is to filter air/blood/lymph and expose the white blood cells within them to foreign material and thus activate the body's immune system
Both lymph nodes and the spleen filter blood and scrub out some of the unnecessary chemicals and waste in the blood.
spleen is a solid organ, lymph is a liquid
Lymph and blood are not similar.

The primary lymphoid organs in the body are the lymph nodes. This is incorrect. Primary lymphatic organs are site where stem cells divide and become immunocompetent, capable of mounting an immune response. Therefore the primary lymphatic organs are the Red bone Marrow, in flat bones and epiphyses of long bones, and in the Thymus.
Both spleen and tonsils are examples of large lymphoid masses so the are included in the lymphatic system.
Lymphoid tissue includes the lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, bone marrow and "tonsils" which are located in the throat.Enlarged bunches of lymphoid tissue are usually swollen lymph nodes.Smaller bunches of lymphoid tissues usually refer to the tonsils.
The lymphatic system organs are the spleen, the thymus, lymph nodes & lymph vessels, tonsils, and peer's patches. Any organ that is not one of these is an organ not in the lymphatic system, like the stomach, or gallbladder, or lungs.
the lymph system is the body's primary defense against infection. certain components produce and transport cells and protein that help rid the body of infection and they include the spleen, tonsils, lymph nodes, and lymph vessels.

It helps return leaked blood to your bloodstream.
The appendix is a narrow blind sac extending from the beginning of the colon that stores lymph cells. The appendix is a narrow blind ended sac that has nothing to do with lymph whatsoever. The lymph cells are stored in the lymph nodes.
The lymph organs found in the throat are called tonsils. They make a circle to guard what is introduced into the body.
