Answer:

Option B, weight greater than your true weight

Explanation:

When a person stand on a scale in an elevator, his inertia tries to remain constant and stable. Thus when a lift starts moving upward it presses against  the feet of that person in order to lift him/her up. In doing so an apparent weight is applied on the person which do not change with speed and it is due to this weight that scale shows a higher reading when elevator moves up.

Hence, option B is correct.

What is the difference between lymph and blood
natka813 [3]

Blood and lymph are the two circulating fluids in the animal body. Blood belongs to the circulation system whereas lymph belongs to the lymphatic system. Blood contains pigments which carry oxygen. Therefore, blood can be found in different colors in different types of organisms. But, lymph is a colorless fluid. Blood is composed of red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and a fluid called plasma. Lymph is composed of white blood cells and a watery fluid. Both blood and lymph possess a circulatory function as well as an immune function. The main difference between blood and plasma is that blood circulates inside blood vessels whereas lymph circulates inside lymphatic vessels.
