Solution

Lymph is a mobile connective tissue comprising lymph plasma and lymph corpuscles.
Lymph plasma is similar to blood plasma but has fewer blood protein, less calcium and phosphorus and high glucose concentration. Mostly leucocytes (white blood corpuscles) are present in plasma. Erythrocytes (red blood corpuscles) and platelets are absent in lymph plasma.
