1) The lymph system is a network of organs, lymph nodes, lymph ducts, and lymph vessels that produce and transport lymph from tissues to the bloodstream. The lymph system is a major component of the body's immune system

Lymph is a clear-to-white fluid made of:

chyle (fluid from the intestines after digestion that contains proteins and fats)
some red blood cells
many white blood cells, especially lymphocytes (lymphocytes are the cells that attack bacteria in the blood)

2)

3) Muscles use energy in the form of ATP. The energy from ATP is used to reset the myosin crossbridge head and release the actin filament.

Lymph nodes are in your neck and they filter and destroy bacteria and viruses. Number two is incoherent. Number three is; energy and ATP.
