The correct answer is true. The centrifuge is designed to use centrifugal force to separate substances of different densities within a solution. When a clot tube containing blood is placed in a centrifuge, it effectively separates the serum from the blood cells while maintaining the integrity of the serum. The serum can then be used for various diagnostic tests without the interference of cellular components.
