Verified step by step guidance

Understand the function of the lymphatic system: The lymphatic system is responsible for draining lymph fluid from tissues and returning it to the bloodstream. It plays a crucial role in immune function and fluid balance.

Identify the major lymphatic ducts: The lymphatic system includes two main ducts, the right lymphatic duct and the thoracic duct. Each duct drains specific regions of the body.

Focus on the right lymphatic duct: The right lymphatic duct is responsible for draining lymph from the right upper quadrant of the body.

Determine the specific areas drained by the right lymphatic duct: The right lymphatic duct drains the right arm, the right side of the head, and the right side of the thorax.

Compare the options given in the problem: Evaluate each option based on the areas drained by the right lymphatic duct. The correct answer is the option that matches the areas drained by the right lymphatic duct, which is the right arm and right side of the head and thorax.
