Lab Report Format Expectations
Utilize college level grammar and professional formatting when completing this worksheet.
Submissions without proper formatting, all required photos or sufficient responses will be rejected. Pre-
lab Questions
1. The experiments in this lab cover the lymphatic system. Provide a brief overview of this system.
Include a discussion on the structures involved, its purpose and the cells involved. (Hint: Your
response should be 5-6 sentences.)
Lymph nodes, veins, tonsils, spleen and thymus are part of the lymphatic system, which is
responsible for fluid balancing of fluids (called Lymph) and immune support in the human body.
Lymph nodes filter lymph fluid to act as immune response centers that fight off against
infection, arteries transfer it, and the spleen functions as a blood filter.

Lab 12 The Lymphatic System BIO202L
EXPERIMENT 1: EXAMINING THE MICROSCOPIC ANATOMY OF THE LYMPHATIC SYSTEM
Introduction Questions
1. In this experiment, you will review slides containing cells from lymph nodes and from the
spleen. Describe the specific functions of these tissues. Are they similar or different? How?
Lymph nodes act as filters for lymph fluid, facilitating immune cell contact and activation. The
spleen functions as a blood filter, eliminating old red blood cells, storing platelets, and taking
part in immunological reactions in the bloodstream. While both contribute to immune functions,
lymph nodes focus on lymphatic system surveillance, whereas the spleen prioritizes blood
filtration and immunological responses in the circulation.
