Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (b) Plasma

Explanation

Plasma is the fluid part of blood, forming about 55% of total blood volume.

It is a yellowish liquid (~90% water) that transports nutrients, hormones, wastes and clotting protein fibrinogen.

RBCs, WBCs and platelets are the solid cellular components, not the fluid part.
