Hi, White blood cells are produced in the bone marrow and bone marrow is a lymphoid organ so why is the production of white blood cells not part of the lymphatic system?
Yes it is possible to argue that, but when seeing a question that is debatable you need to select the best answer. Bone marrow being a lymphoid organ does not mean every function performed by bone marrow is classified as a function of the lymphatic system. Production of blood cells is hematopoiesis.
An organ of a system can perform functions that aren't classified as functions of that system
