Solution

The correct option is B Lysolecithin
During schizogony, many RBCs are destroyed. The enlargement of the spleen takes place and releases a lytic substance, lysolecithin, that destroys the RBCs. It is a graveyard of RBC which removes the dead RBC from the blood. So, the correct answer is option B.
