Solution

The correct option is B Plasma without fibrinogen
The serum is plasma without fibrinogen. In blood, the serum is the component that is neither a blood cell nor a clotting factor; it is the blood plasma not including the fibrinogens. Serum includes all proteins not used in blood clotting (coagulation) and all the electrolytes, antibodies, antigens, hormones, and any exogenous substances.
