The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Components of Blood and Lymph:** - Blood is composed of various components including red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), platelets, plasma, nutrients, hormones, and oxygen. - Lymph, on the other hand, is a fluid that is similar to blood plasma but has a different composition. It contains lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) and is involved in the immune response. 2. **Identifying the Differences:** - While blood carries a wide range of substances, lymph is particularly rich in lymphocytes and certain fats, especially after digestion. - Lymph that is formed in the digestive system is known as chyle, which is rich in triglycerides (a type of fat). 3. **Analyzing the Options:** - Given the options (RBC, nutrients, lipid, oxygen), we need to determine which component is more abundant in lymph than in blood. - RBCs are present only in blood, nutrients are primarily carried by blood, and oxygen is also predominantly found in blood. 4. **Identifying the Correct Answer:** - The component that is more abundant in lymph than in blood is **lipid** (specifically triglycerides), particularly in the form of chyle after digestion. This is because chyle appears milky due to the presence of fats. 5. **Conclusion:** - Therefore, the answer to the question "One is more in lymph than blood" is **lipid**.
