Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option D: Lungs
Concept:

The lymphatic system is composed of an interconnected network of vessels, nodes, and specialized organs that house immune cells.

Formula:

None

Solution:

  • Primary and secondary lymphoid organs include the bone marrow, thymus, spleen, lymph nodes, and tonsils.


  • The lungs are primarily organs of the respiratory system dedicated to gas exchange.


  • While lungs contain lymphatic drainage (like all tissues), the organ itself is not classified as a structure of the lymphatic system.


Why other options are incorrect:

  • Spleen: The largest secondary lymphoid organ in the body.
