With respect to blood, the composition of lymph can be expressed as:
1. No RBc, No Plateletes, Less proteins, Less calcium and phosphorus, Predominant corpuscles lymphocytes.
2. No RBc, No Plateletes, Less proteins, More calcium and phosphorus, Predominant corpuscles lymphocytes.
3. No RBc, Less or no Plateletes, Less proteins, Less calcium and phosphorus, Predominant corpuscles macrophages.
4. No RBc, less Plateletes, Less proteins, Less calcium and phosphorus, Predominant corpuscles monocytes.
Lymph has following properties
(i) Same mineral distribution as that of plasma
(ii) Intestine also has lymph
(iii) Also known as tissue fluid because it helps in exchange
(iv) Lymph plays role in defence as well

Match the following:
p. | Lymph | e. | Amphibians |
q. | Mixed Blood | f. | Tissue Fluid |
r. | Fibrins | g. | RBC |
s. | Rh antigen | h. | Blood Clot |
1. p–g; q–h; r–e; s–f
2. p–f; q–e; r–h; s–g
3. p–e; q–h; r–f; s–g
4. p–f; q–g; r–h; s–e
Assertion : The increased permeability of the lymph capillaries is easily altered.
Reason : The increased permeability of the capillary walls leads to oedema or swelling.
Compared to blood our lymph has:
1. no plasma
2. plasma without proteins
3. more WBCs and no RBCs
4. more RBCs and less WBCs
Lymph ultimately release the absorbed substances into
1. Lymphatic capillaries
2. Bloodstream (veins)
3. Lymph nodes
4. Lymphatic duct
Read the following
a. Lymph absorbs and transports fat from the intestine
b. Lymph nodes produce fibrinogen.
c. Lymphatic capillaries present in the intestinal villi are known as lacteals.
d. Lymph transports oxygen only.
Which of these statements are true?
1. a, c
2. b, d
3. c, d
4. a, b
A. | RBCs are devoid of nucleus in most of the mammals and are biconvex in shape. |
B. | Lymph has the same mineral distribution as that in plasma. |
C. | By counting the number of QRS complexes in ECG that occur in a given time period, one can determine the heartbeat rate of an individual. |
D. | Heart is an endodermally derived organ. |
I: | is released out as the blood passes through the capillaries in tissues leaving the larger proteins and most of the formed elements in the blood vessels. |
II: | has nearly the same mineral distribution as that in plasma. |
