Lymph is the part of the lymphatic system, which is a colourless watery fluid which contains lymphocytes and proteins.
They are colourless because they lack red blood cells.
The red blood cells contain haemoglobin protein which gives a red colour to the blood. So, the correct answer is 'RBC are absent'.
