Ans:
C

Feedback:

The gamma globulins, antibodies of the immune system, protect against infectious diseases. Because alpha globulin transports bilirubin, a defect in this plasma protein might lead to jaundice; a defect of beta globulin, which transports iron, could be associated with anemia; and a defect of fibrinogen could result in blood clots.
