**Lymphatic Drainage Diagram Explanation** The image depicts a simplified view of lymphatic drainage, which is a crucial part of the body's immune system. The diagram illustrates the flow of lymph fluid through a network of vessels. - **Red and Blue Vessels**: These represent the blood circulatory system. The red vessel indicates arterial blood flow, while the blue vessel represents venous blood flow. - **Green Vessels**: These are the lymphatic vessels, shown transporting lymph fluid. Arrows along the green vessels indicate the direction of lymph flow, moving toward the venous system. - **Background Cells**: Surrounding the vessels are small circular shapes, representing tissue cells, illustrating how lymph fluid interacts with body tissues. This diagram helps demonstrate how the lymphatic system works in conjunction with the blood circulatory system to maintain fluid balance and support immune function.
