In what ways does the lymphatic system help to contribute to homeostasis?

In reality, homeostasis depends on the body's ability to remove waste products.





The removal of cellular waste that is dissolved in water (called interstial fluid the fluid that diffuses out of the circulatory system and bathes the cells) is the function of the lymphatic system. Thus, homeostasis can be maintained. If the interstial fluid was not removed, the cells would pollute themselves and the organism would die due internal pollution and an upset in homeostasis.

In what ways does the lymphatic system help to contribute to homeostasis?
as the blood flows through the arteries, some of the plasma moves into the tissues and would bathe them. again some of this fluid would re enter the blood vessels. some fluid which cant enter into the blood vessel moves into the lymph capillaries and is transported to heart. if there is no lymphatic system the water or fluid remains in the tissue leading to oedema. this extra cellular fluid supplies oxygen to different tissues and removes wastes from them. thus it helps in homeostasis
Reply:homeostasis is the body's ability to use its internal systems toreach an equilibrium. the lymphatic system regulates the body's wastes in the bloodstream.
Reply:since blood passes through your capillaries the loss fluids add up to 4L a day, the lymphatic system helps by returning the loss fluid back to the blood
