Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the composition of lymph: Lymph is a fluid that circulates throughout the lymphatic system, playing a crucial role in immune function and fluid balance.
Identify the components typically found in lymph: Lymph primarily contains white blood cells, particularly lymphocytes, which are essential for immune responses.
Recognize what is not found in lymph: Unlike blood, lymph does not contain red blood cells or hemoglobin, as these are confined to the circulatory system.
Consider the role of platelets: Platelets are involved in blood clotting and are not typically present in lymph, as lymph is not involved in clotting processes.
Conclude with the correct component: Based on the understanding of lymph composition, white blood cells are the correct component found in lymph.
