Detailed explanation-1: -When separated from the rest of the blood, plasma is a light yellow liquid. Plasma carries water, salts, and enzymes. The main role of plasma is to take nutrients, hormones, and proteins to the parts of the body that need it.

Detailed explanation-2: -The reason plasma is typically yellow in colour and not red like our blood is due to a pigment called bilirubin. Bilirubin is the end product of red blood cell (haemoglobin) breakdown. It is circulated in your blood then travels to your liver where it is processed and eventually removed.
