Demeclocycline is a tetracycline antibiotic which was widely used to treat bacterial infections. It is also used to treat the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH).

Answer:
Diffusion
Explanation:
The concept of diffusion states that molecules like to travel from areas of high concentration to low concentration.
Let's think about an example. Let's say you are having a party at your house and in one room there is 100 people and in the other room connected to it, there is only 10 people. What do you think is going to happen as time passes? Right, people are going to move to the room where there is less people so as to equally disperse themselves across the area. The same thing happens within our body with ions and gases.
Ions can diffuse into or out of cells based off their concentration gradients. If there are too many ions on one side, they will simply move to the other side. There are different types of diffusion. Passive diffusion and facilitated diffusion, but those are for a different conversation.

The lymphatic trunk trains the lymph fluid into two lymph ducts: The thoracic lymph duct and the right lymphatic duct.
The thoracic lymph duct takes the lymph from the lower left halves of the body. It is the largest lymph vessel. It carries the lymph and chyle (emulsified fatty acids) back into the bloodstream. It drains lymph into the circulatory system via the left brachiocephalic vein.
The right lymphatic duct on the other hand gets lymph from the right and upper halves of the body. It drains lymph from the right upper limbs, right part of the thorax and the right half of the head and neck.
