Correct Answer: Spleen


Solution : The correct answer is Spleen.

The spleen destroys old and worn-out red blood corpuscles. The spleen is a tiny organ in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is a component of the lymphatic system and is essential to the immune system. The spleen filters the blood and removes old, and damaged red blood cells as one of its tasks. The lifetime of red blood cells is around 120 days. After that, they lose their ability to transport oxygen and must be replaced.
