- Which statements are true about the circulatory and lymphatic systems? Select all that apply. Check All That Apply Capillaries exist in both the circulatory system and the lymphatic system. In blood, cells and platelets are suspended in interstitial fluid. Skeletal muscle contractions propel lymph through the lymphatic system. Veins collect interstitial fluid that leaks out of the lymph capillaries and returns it to the heart, where it can receive a new supply of red blood cells. Fluid from the space between cells enters the lymphatic system, moves through lymph capillaries and into lymph nodes, and then enters the circulatory system.arrow_forwardheavy water and inulin are injected in a normal man , the volume of distribution of inulin is 10L and heavy water volume was 40L which of the following is correct his ICF is 10L there are not enough information his plasma volume is 8L O his ICF is 30 L Oarrow_forward1) Describe how donating approx. 500mL of whole blood disturbs cardiovascular physiology.
