Q. Plasma without the clotting factor is called

NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2020

Solution:

↵
When all the cells are removed from the blood, the fluid that remains is called plasma. Plasma contains clotting factors and hence is capable of clotting.
However, when all the 13 clotting factors are removed from plasma, the fluid that remains is called serum. Hence serum does not clot.
