Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer: The component which is not found in lymph is D. Erythrocytes. Red blood cells or erythrocytes are one of the cellular components which reside in the blood vessels and are not found in the lymph.
Detailed explanation-2: -The lymph does not contain platelets and its adhesionglycoproteinIb-IXcomplex, therefore thrombus may stay in the lumen and not adhere to the lymphatic wall.
Detailed explanation-3: -The extracellular fluid, in turn, is composed of blood plasma, interstitial fluid, lymph and transcellular fluid (e.g. cerebrospinal fluid, synovial fluid, aqueous humour, serous fluid, gut fluid, etc.). The interstitial fluid and the blood plasma are the major components of the extracellular fluid.
