Lymph in the Efferent Vessels is "Cleaner" Than the Lymph

Question

Lymph in the efferent vessels is "cleaner" than the lymph in the afferent vessels.

Accepted Answer

Lymph in efferent vessels has passed through lymph nodes where it has been filtered and cleaned of foreign particles, bacteria, and damaged cells. Therefore, it is considered "cleaner" than the lymph in afferent vessels, which carries lymph from the tissues to the lymph nodes.
