Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

Synovial fluid, also called synovia, is a viscous, non- Newtonian fluid found in the cavities of synovial joints. With its egg-white-like consistency, the principal role of synovial fluid is to reduce friction between the articular cartilage of synovial joints during movement.
