The answer is the second one (B): Plasma.

Explanation for each option:

  • Serum: Incorrect. Serum is the liquid part of the blood that remains after clotting has taken place, meaning it does not contain clotting factors.
  • Plasma: Correct. Plasma is the liquid component of blood in which the blood cells and platelets are suspended. It contains water, salts, enzymes, antibodies, and other proteins.
  • Cytoplasm: Incorrect. Cytoplasm is the material within a living cell, excluding the nucleus, and is not related to blood.
  • Formed elements: Incorrect. Formed elements refer to the cellular components of blood, which include red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, not the liquid part.

Summary: The liquid part of the blood in which the cells and platelets are suspended is called plasma.
