B Correct answer
Explanation

Blood consists of a fluid medium known as plasma, which contains salts, enzymes and different proteins. It is faint yellow in colour. Blood also consists of corpuscles like red blood cells (RBC’s), white blood cells (WBC’s) and platelets. But blood plasma itself is not composed of corpuscles. So, option (2) is incorrect.
