What does the acronym 'lytes' stand for?

Electrolytes
Light therapy
Lymphocytes
Lipotypes

The correct answer is: Electrolytes

The acronym 'lytes' stands for electrolytes, which are minerals in the body that conduct electrical impulses. The other options, including light therapy, lymphocytes, and lipotypes, are all unrelated to electrolytes. Light therapy refers to a therapeutic use of light, lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell, and lipotypes are fats in the body. None of these options refer to 'lytes' as an acronym, so they are not correct answers.
