The exact proportion depends on the type of animal, its age, sex, health and whether or not it has had sufficient to drink. In vertebrates almost 2/3rd of this water is in the cells (intracellular fluid). The rest is outside the cells (extracellular fluid) where it is found in the spaces around the cells (tissue fluid), as well as in the blood and lymph.

Some enters the blind-ended lymphatic capillaries that form a network between the cells of the tissues. Lymph flows from the lymphatic capillaries to lymph vessels, passing through lymph nodes and along the thoracic duct to join the blood system. Lymph nodes filter the lymph and produce lymphocytes. Other organs of the lymphatic system are the spleen, thymus, bone marrow, and lymph nodules.

Add the following labels to the diagram showing the formation of lymph below. Compare plasma, serum, tissue fluid and lymph by filling in the cells in the table below. Mark the positions of the following lymph nodes on the picture of the dog below. A major function of lymph nodes is to filter foreign substances from the lymph. The cisterna chyli and thoracic duct are parts of the lymphatic system.

Lymph is a clear watery fluid that is very similar to blood plasma except that it contains large numbers of white blood cells, mostly lymphocytes. It also contains protein, cellular debris, foreign particles and bacteria.
