Lymph is a fluid connective tissue that circulates throughout the lymphatic system and helps in the process of transportation.Some pores are present in the walls of the capillaries and through these pores, small amounts of plasma, proteins, and blood cells flow out in intercellular spaces in the tissues. As this lymph is formed from the blood which has come out through the capillaries it is called as filtered blood.
