A clear yellowish fluid is found in

  1. The heart

  2. Capillaries

  3. The liver

  4. The lymphatic system

The correct answer is: Capillaries

This yellowish fluid is known as lymph, and it is found in the lymphatic system. While the heart does contain fluid, it is typically red in color due to oxygenated blood. The liver also contains fluids, but they are not typically clear or yellowish in appearance. Capillaries are small blood vessels that connect to larger arteries and veins, while the lymphatic system is a separate system responsible for transporting lymph throughout the body. Therefore, the other options are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the location of this clear yellowish fluid.
