Model Answer

Answer: B

Lymph carries digested and absorbed fat from the intestine and drains excess fluid from extracellular spaces back into the blood.

Source: Life Processes, Section 5.4.1 (Lymph)

Explanation

The textbook explicitly states: "Lymph carries digested and absorbed fat from intestine and drains excess fluid from extra cellular space back into the blood." Options A, C, and D describe functions of blood/heart, not lymph. Examiner expects both functions of lymph to justify the choice.
