- Color the artery red and color the vein blue.
- Color the left side of the heart red and color the right side of the heart blue.
- Color half of the blood capillaries red and the other half blue.

- The lymphatic system is closely associated with the __________________________________________ system.
Using different colors and the list below, color and label the lymphatic vessels.
Lymphatic capillary Lymph node Tissue fluid Lymphatic duct Lymphatic vessel Vein
- Tissue fluid that is secreted by cells, that is taken up by lymphatic capillaries, is called _______________________.
- Explain why the walls of lymphatic capillaries would be composed of simple squamous epithelial tissue.
Complete the paragraph regarding lymphatic vessels and lymph.
Unlike the cardiovascular system, which circulates blood, the lymphatic system moves lymph in __ 1__ direction. (^) 1. Tissue cells secrete tissue fluid, which is taken up by 2. 2 _____ to become 3. A lymphatic capillary (^) 3. is composed of ____ 4 _____ tissue, which allows (^) 4. for tissue fluid to easily move from __ 5__ _____ to (^) 5. the lymphatic capillaries. Lymph travels through lymphatic 6. capillaries which then merge to form larger __ 6__ _____. (^) 7. Lymphatic vessels are similar to cardiovascular __ 7__ (^) 8. because they both contain 8, which prevents fluids (^) 9. from flowing backwards. Along the lymphatic vessels 10. are numerous 9 ____, filled with B and T 10 (^) 11. and macrophages, whose function is to filter and remove 12. 11 and foreign substances from lymph. After (^) 13. passing through several lymph nodes, clean lymph is 14. then transported through larger merging lymphatic vessels called 12 _____ before finally being transported to 13 where it is recirculated to the __ 14__ system.
