Question

Which fluid carries absorbed fat from intestine and drains excess fluid from extra cellular space back into the blood?

A.

Plasma

B.

Lymph

C.

Platelets

D.

Capillaries

Correct option is B

The correct answer is B. Lymph.
Explanation:
Lymph is a clear, colorless fluid that carries absorbed fats from the intestine and helps in draining excess fluid from extracellular spaces back into the bloodstream. It is a key part of the lymphatic system, which aids in immune function and fluid balance.
Information Booster:
  • The lacteals (lymphatic vessels in the small intestine) absorb dietary fats and fat-soluble vitamins and transport them as chyle into the bloodstream.
  • Lymph also removes waste, transports white blood cells, and maintains fluid balance in tissues.
  • Unlike blood, lymph lacks red blood cells, making it colorless.
Additional Information:
  • Plasma– The liquid part of blood, carrying nutrients, hormones, and waste.
  • Platelets – Help in blood clotting.
  • Capillaries – Tiny blood vessels that exchange nutrients and gases .
