Solution

The correct option is D None of the above
Lymph flows away from the tissues to lymph nodes and eventually to either the right lymphatic duct or the largest lymph vessel in the body, the thoracic duct. These vessels drain into the right and left subclavian veins respectively. The right lymph duct drains right arm, shoulder, and right side of head and neck. Whereas left lymph duct drains left side of neck and head including legs. Thus, the correct answer is option D.
