10. The following paragraph describes lymphatic vessels. Complete it by scoring out the incorrect options in bold,
leaving the correct option(s).
The smallest lymphatic vessels are called ducts/venules/capillaries. One significant difference between them
and the smallest blood vessels is that they are only one cell thick/have permeable walls/originate in the
tissues; their function is to drain the lymph, containing red blood cells/white blood cells/platelets, away from
the interstitial spaces. Most tissues have a network of these tiny vessels, but one notable exception is bone
tissue/muscle tissue/fatty tissue. The individual tiny vessels join up to form larger ones, which now contain
two/three/four layers of tissue in their walls, similar to veins in the cardiovascular system. The inner lining,
the endothelial/fibrous/muscular layer, covers the valves, which filter the lymph/store the lymph/regulate
flow of lymph. As vessels progressively unite and become wider and wider, eventually they empty into the
biggest lymph vessels of all, the thoracic duct and the right lymphatic duct/subclavian duct and the right
lymphatic duct/thoracic duct and subclavian duct. The first one of these drains the left side of the body/right
side of the body above the diaphragm/lower limbs and pelvic area. The second drains the upper body
above the pelvis/right side of the body/lower part of the body and the upper left side above the
diaphragm.
