Options:

B .  Colourless
C .  Yellow
D .  White
Answer: Option C
:
C

  • Blood is mainly composed of two components- plasma and blood cells.

  • Plasma is yellow coloured fluid part of the blood.

  • Blood cells are of three types- RBCs, WBCs and platelets.

  • RBCs are red in colour due to haemoglobin and functions in transport of gases.

  • White blood cells and platelets are colourless. WBCs are involved in defense mechanism, while platelets participate in blood clotting.

  • So,if wehave only white blood cells in ourbody then the colour of the blood will be yellow due to colour of the plasma, since WBCs and plateletsare colourless.
