Answer:
Lymph (from Latin, lympha meaning "water"[1]) is the fluid that flows through the lymphatic system, a system composed of lymph vessels (channels) and intervening lymph nodes whose function, like the venous system, is to return fluid from the tissues to the central circulation. Interstitial fluid – the fluid between the cells in all body tissues[2] – enters the lymph capillaries. This lymphatic fluid is then transported via progressively larger lymphatic vessels through lymph nodes, where substances are removed by tissue lymphocytes and circulating lymphocytes are added to the fluid, before emptying ultimately into the right or the left subclavian vein, where it mixes with central venous blood.

The extracellular fluid released from capillaries is option(c) lymph
Explanation:
- The immune system produces lymph, which is a fluid made up of white blood cells that fight infectious things that have entered the body.
- Extracellular refers to the area outside of the cells. Lymph is extracellular because the fluid travels outside the cell rather than inside it.
- Extracellular fluid (ECF) is the term used to describe all bodily fluids that exist outside of the cells of any multicellular creature.
- In healthy adults, total body water accounts for about 60% (range 45-75%) of total body weight; women and obese people have a smaller percentage than lean men. A citation is required.
Serum :
- The serum is distinct from plasma, which is the liquid part of typical unclotted blood that contains the red, white, and platelet cells. The word "serum" comes from the Latin word "whey," which refers to the watery liquid that separates from the curds during the cheesemaking process.
- In the blood, the serum is a circulating transporter of exogenous and endogenous liquids.
- It allows things to adhere to the serum's molecules and become buried within them.
- As a result, human serum aids in the transfer of fatty acids and thyroid hormones, which act on the majority of the body's cells.
Plasma
- It is used to deliver vital molecules throughout the body. It serves as the extracellular matrix of blood cells by containing cellular components.
- It's a substance found in the extracellular fluid. The plasma in medicine refers to the sterilized blood plasma.
- Plasma transports a variety of components, including blood cells, proteins (including clotting factors and antibodies), electrolytes, nutrients, gases, and wastes, through the body's blood arteries.
- All of these possibilities do not exist in the extracellular fluid discharged from capillaries.
