Detailed explanation-1: -Plasma is the largest part of your blood. It makes up more than half (about 55%) of its overall content. When separated from the rest of the blood, plasma is a light yellow liquid. Plasma carries water, salts, and enzymes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Due to the presence of bilirubin, blood plasma is pale yellow in colour.
