The spleen acts as a blood reservoir within the lymphatic system. It stores blood and can release it into circulation when needed, such as during times of physical exertion or blood loss. Additionally, the spleen plays a role in filtering blood and removing old or damaged red blood cells.
What else can I help you with?
What blood cells?
Bone marrow, which is part of the lymphatic system, is what produces blood cells.
Which blood components leave the blood vessels to become a part of the lymphatic system?
human blood components
What systems those white blood cells?
White blood cells are part of two systems: the circulatory system and the lymphatic system.
Is the thoracic duct part of the immune system?
Thoracic duct is a part of Lymphatic System.
How is the spleen important to the cardiovascular and lymphatic system?
The spleen produces blood cells, and forms part of the immune system.
What ors not correctly pair an organ with its organ system heart lymphatic system?
The heart does not correctly pair with the lymphatic system; it is part of the circulatory system. The heart functions to pump blood throughout the body, while the lymphatic system is responsible for transporting lymph, a fluid containing infection-fighting white blood cells. The correct organ pairing for the lymphatic system would be the lymph nodes or spleen.

What area of the lymphatic organs is also part of the skeletal system?
Bone marrow is part of the body's skeletal and lymphatic organ systems. It produces lymphocytes vital to the immune system.
Is there a spleen in the circulatory system?
Ok, I have no idea what you mean by that question. Technically, since blood flows to the spleen to keep it alive...then yes. But blood flows to every living cell in your body to keep it alive so...yeah. But is the spleen a part of the circulatory system? That is also a yes. It is part of the lymphatic system, not the cardiovascular system. The lymphatic system is a sub-system of the circulatory system that basically helps fight infection, recycle blood plasma, etc. Most people do not think of the lymphatic system as part of the circulatory system though (even though it is) and most use the words "circulatory" and "cardiovascular" interchangeably (even though they're not interchangeable). Seeing as the cardiovascular organs are the heart and blood vessels, if that is what you meant...then no it's not. Please be more specific with your questions.
