Solution

Fluids in the human body:

  1. Blood, lymph, milk, and saliva are examples of bodily fluids.
  2. These fluids are created by the body and either circulate within or are discharged outside only.
  3. The lymphatic vessels' interiors are filled with a colorless fluid called lymph.
  4. CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) and mucus have the ability to wet our internal organs.
  5. CSF is a colorless bodily fluid that lubricates the spinal cord and brain. Choroid plexus tissues make up the fluid.
  6. CSF is generated in the ciliary body of the ventricles of the brain by specialized ependymal cells and soaked up in the arachnoid granulations.
  7. Mucus naturally produced by the mucosa and mucus glands tends to help to lubricate internal organs.
  8. Mucus is composed of several components, the most significant of which is a substance known as mucin.
