Lymph traveling from the left arm would enter the venous circulation via the thoracic duct.

<h3>What is thoracic duct?</h3>
  • The largest lymphatic channel in the body's lymphatic system is the thoracic duct, commonly known as van Hoorne's canal.
  • Adults have an average length of 40 cm, and their abdominal origin is about 5 mm wide.
  • The thoracic duct runs from the root of the neck to the twelfth thoracic vertebra.
  • The thoracic duct enters the posterior mediastinum, remaining to the right of the vertebral column, by ascending via the diaphragm's aortic hiatus.
  • At the T7 vertebral level, it runs posterior to the esophagus before crossing over to the left side of the thorax at the T5 vertebral level.
  • The primary lymphatic channel for the return of chyle/lymph to the systemic venous system is the thoracic duct.
  • It drains lymph from the left side of the face and neck, left hemithorax, left upper limb, and both lower limbs.

Cytoplasm: Fluid between the cell membrane and the nucleus. helps protect organelles

Nucleus: A part of the cell containing hereditary information and is responsible for growth and reproduction; the "command center" of the cell.

Ribosome: A small particle in the cell that can make proteins.

Endoplasmic Reticulum: A cell structure that forms a maze of passageways in which proteins and other materials are carried from one part of the cell to another.

Golgi Apparatus: A cell structure that helps make and package materials to be transported out of the cell or for storage inside the cell.

Lysosome: Cell organelle filled with enzymes needed to break down certain materials in the cell, such as large food particles or old parts of the cell. May be found only in animal cells.

Vacuole: Saclike storage structure in the cell. can store water, nutrients, and even toxic substances.

Mitochondrion: An organelle containing enzymes responsible for producing energy. (Metabolism/respiration)

Chloroplast: An organelle found in the cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy (photosynthesis).

Cell membrane: The thin, flexible barrier around a cell; controls what enters and leaves the cell.

Cell wall: The structure outside of the cell membrane that is used to provide support and protection. Present in plants, algae, fungi, and many prokaryotes.

Why can polyploidy individuals lead to speciation fairly quickly?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

In species with polyploid, there are more chromosomal sets than in diploid one. Becouse there are more chromosomal structures available,  events like mutation, recombination, DNA lose, are more probable to occur.

As the generations pass, the accumulation of these changes tend polyploid to speciation.
