Which of the following correctly describes the recirculation of fluids in the body?a) lymph, interstitial fluid, cardiovascular system, lymph.
b) cardiovascular system, interstitial fluid, cardiovascular system, lymph.
c) interstitial fluid, cardiovascular system, lymph, interstitial fluid.
d) cardiovascular system, interstitial fluid, lymph, cardiovascular system.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option-D

Explanation:

Recirculation of blood refers to the reentry of the blood into the arteries after it has returned from the veins of the body.

The recirculation begins in the heart when the left ventricle pumps the blood into the body. The blood vessels called arteries become minute called capillaries which supply blood to the tissue and cells therefore blood enters the capillaries and thus to the interstitial fluid.

The interstitial fluid gets mixed with the lymph which contains the lymphocytes and then the lymph returns to the cardiovascular system again.

Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.
