ThymusThe thymus is a lymphoid gland comprised of two identically sized lobes,located behind the sternum and in front of the heart. The thymus functionsmainly during our youth as it produces hormones and thymosin that assist certainlymphocytes in the programing of their immune defense roles in the body.
SpleenThe spleen is located on the left side of the abdominal cavity and spreads to theanterior aspect of the stomach. The spleen is a blood-rich organ that filters outbacteria, viruses and other cellular debris from the blood.The spleen also destroys depleted red blood cells and returns waste products tothe liver. The spleen also stores platelets and takes on the role of a bloodreservoir (Marieb 2003).

Spleen
The spleen is located on the left side of the abdominal cavity and spreads to the
anterior aspect of the stomach. The spleen is a blood-rich organ that filters out
bacteria, viruses and other cellular debris from the blood.
The spleen also destroys depleted red blood cells and returns waste products to
the liver. The spleen also stores platelets and takes on the role of a blood
reservoir (Marieb 2003).
