"Fluid contained inside the lymphatic vessels is referred to as lymph <span>and is similar to blood plasma in consistency and appearance."
</span>

The lymph is formed by the interstitial fluid that enters the lymph capillaries. Because of its origin, the lymph varies its composition a lot as cells are constantly in exchanges with their interstitium. The lymph is then through lymphatic vessels until it gets to lymph nodes where is treated by lymphocytes. After this treatment, the lymph is then released into the bloodstream, on the subclavian veins. Because of this common tracks (ultimately the subclavian veins), and contacts (body's cells), blood plasma and lymph are so similar.

What provides evidence of an increase in animal species at the same time that atmospheric oxygen concentrations increased?
12345 [234]

Answer:

Fossil records provide evidence of an increase in animal species at the same time that atmospheric oxygen levels increased.

Explanation:

A huge diversification among animal species occurred with the increase in the levels of atmospheric oxygen. The reason why the number of species increased drastically was that a whole new world opened up, the land. The land was open for exploitation and taking over, with every single niche free, so animals diversified and filled in pretty much all of the niches. The fossil records give us clues when this happened, as from only microorganisms there is a sharp rise in complex animals, coinciding with the increase of oxygen levels.

If it wasn't for the increase of atmospheric oxygen though this wouldn't have been possible. The oxygen in the atmosphere enabled animals to breathe on land. Also, it cooled off the global temperatures which were too high before the increase of atmospheric oxygen, making them suitable for life. And last but not least, the atmospheric oxygen resulted in the formation of the ozone layer, a layer that started to act as protection from the UV rays.
