What is blood?

Blood is the type of a connective tissue consisting of liquid substance plasma and formed elements R.B.C, W.B.C and platteles, it always circulates in a closed system of blood vessels It provides a medium to transport substance from one part of the body to another part of the body. I will also describe its functions of blood

Composition

• Blood is composed of 55% of plasma
• 45% of R.B.Cs
• 1% of W.B.Cs & plattelets

Composition Of Plasma

• in Water 92% -> also Plasma proteins 7% -> and Other solutes 1%

Composition Of Plasma Protein

Albumins 60%
4.5g%
Globulins 35%
2.5% g
Fibrinogen 4%
0.3g%

Function of Albuminous

• Maintain pressure in the blood vessels
• Transports substances like fatty acid, the acids
• Hormones Steroid Hormones

Function of Glalbutins

• Its vital role in Immune system
• Its transports ions and Hormones

Function of Fibrinogens

• Essential for blood clot/ clotting factors

Causes of Plasma color

A small amount of bilirubin carotene

8 Functions of blood

Blood transports Q2 from lungs to tissues and CQ2
from tissues to lungs

• Its Transport Pressure
• absorbed from GIT
• Mobilized from storage depots to tissues
• It transports excretory products from tissues to
• organs of excretion like kidneys, lungs, intense and
• Skin, etc
• IT carries hormones, enzymes, antibodies, vitamins,
• inorganic and organic salts to there place of
• activity
• IT contains clotting factors [ fibrinogen ] so prevents

Homologous by coagulation

• IT also regulates
• Water balance
• Blood Ph
• Ian balance
• body Temperature
• blood pressure
• blood viscosity
• Osmotic Pressure

Characteristics Of Blood

• High Viscous liquid (High Viscosity)
• 38°C (104 °F) Normal temperature
• Alkaline PH (7.35 to 7.45)
