Sentences with lymph-vessel
1. Noun Phrase
There is no central pump associated with the lymphatic system; lymph vessels produce their own propulsion system with a network of smooth musculature located in the walls of lymph collectors and trunks.
2. Noun Phrase
Since the lymph vessels work according to the one-way principle and not as a closed circulatory system like the blood, it is more appropriate to speak of lymph transport rather than lymph circulation.
3. Noun Phrase
While the flow of blood through the blood vessels is uninterrupted, the transport of lymph fluid through the lymph vessel system is interrupted by lymph nodes.
