Solution

Blood plasma:
Blood plasma refers to the straw-coloured, liquid portion of the blood. It consists of water, glucose, lipids, inorganic salts, large proteins including fibrinogen, clotting factor prothrombin, etc.
Blood plasma without formed elements, fibrinogen, large proteins, and prothrombin is called serum.
The serum is a yellow, watery fluid that is not involved in blood clotting.
Serum can be defined as blood plasma devoid of clotting factors.
