The Human Lymphatic System is essentially the body's drainage system. A network of small structures and vessels, called lymph nodes, collects fluid from around the human body and gets it back into the blood circulation. Any biology student would benefit greatly from a pamphlet that explains the basic functions of the human lymphatic system.

Whether you are a nursing student or pre-med, there are many things that you will need to know. All the information you are required to learn can seem utterly overwhelming. Anatomy and physiology of the body systems, pharmacology, and biochemistry are just some of the classes you will be required to take. These courses and managing time will all but consume you. In most cases, there is no getting around the need for memorization. When studying the lymphatic system and all its vessels and cellular functions, it would be essential to have a study guide for quick and easy reminders.

The lymphatic system is one of the more complex systems of the body. It is responsible for keeping a person's fluids balanced and putting fluids into the blood. It is also responsible for making leukocytes and antibodies to help fight infection and disease. A chart of how the lymphatic system works would show you all the capillaries, vessels and nodes that make up the system. Some charts will even show you in detail how things flow in and out of each node and filter out through the body.

The muscular system is the network of body tissue or muscle bands that are formed over your skeleton frame. The muscles, in conjunction with the skeleton and the body's nervous system work together to move the body and guide it through various activities and positions. Certain muscles are more dense than others as a result of certain activities such as cycling or weightlifting which helps develops the thighs or arms and which are expected to carry heavier loads. A chart of the muscular system would be beneficial in helping one understand what muscles are located where in the human body. If one seeks to improve their ability in a particular function, the chart will assist in describing which muscles to train.
