At birth, all bone marrow is what color?

  1. White

  2. Yellow

  3. Red

  4. Green

The correct answer is: Red

At birth, all bone marrow is typically red due to its high blood supply and active production of red and white blood cells. The red color indicates its function to support the body's immune system and carry oxygen to different parts of the body. While bone marrow can become yellow with age due to the increase in fat cells, this usually occurs in adults and not at birth. Additionally, bone marrow is not green as it does not contain any significant amount of chlorophyll. Overall, red is the most accurate and logical answer for this question.
