C. The lymphatic system signals to the circulatory system to generate white blood cells
D. The lymphatic system generates the white blood cells that fight the cold virus

Answer 1

Answer:

D. The lymphatic system generates the white blood cells that fight the cold virus

Explanation:

The lymphatic system works with the immune system in many ways. It helps defend the body from bacteria and viruses by releasing white blood cells which helps fighting the bacteria/virus. These white cells travel through the lymphatic system. The white cells as soon as they hit the bacteria/virus start producing antibodies.
