Blood These blood cells (which are also called corpuscles or  formed elements ) consist of erythrocytes (red blood cells, RBCs), leukocytes (white blood cells), and thrombocytes (platelets). By volume, the red blood cells constitute about 45% of whole blood, the plasma about 54.3%, and white cells about 0.7%.he blood cells are mainly red blood cells (also called RBCs or erythrocytes), white blood cells (also called WBCs or leukocytes) and platelets. The most abundant cells in vertebrate blood are red blood cells.

Blood Blood is a liquid in humans and many animals. Blood is pushed through the organism by the heart, and brings nutrients and oxygen to our tissues.It also takes away waste and carbon dioxide from tissues. Blood is made up of blood plasma and various cells — red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.Platelets help blood to clot. Hemoglobin is in red blood cells.lood is a liquid in humans and many animals. Blood is pushed through the organism by the heart, and brings nutrients and oxygen to our tissues.

Blood In vertebrates, the various cells of blood are made in the bone marrow in a process called hematopoiesis, which includes erythropoiesis, the production of red blood cells; and myelopoiesis, the production of white blood cells and platelets.

Blood Composition and Formed Elements Leukocytes (white blood cells-WBCs) are nucleated cells that are formed in the bone marrow from the same stem cells as red blood cells.

Blood Cells & Formed Elements of the Blood Also included in the formed elements are five types of white blood cells (WBCs or leukocytes). They are part of the immune system and that helps protect the body from foreign invaders.

Hemodynamics The formed elements are platelets, white blood cells and red blood cells, the presence of these formed elements and their interaction with plasma molecules are the main reasons why blood differs so much from ideal Newtonian fluids.

BLOOD ANATOMY These formed elements include erythrocytes, leukocytes, and platelets which are also known as thrombocytes. These elements are carried in the plasma, the liquid form of blood. These elements are responsible for the duties of transport, immunity, and clotting.f these the red blood cells far out number the other formed elements. The red blood cells are more plentiful in males than in females. A cubic millimeter of blood contains anywhere from 4.3 million to 5.2 million in the female body and 5.1 million to 5.8 million in the body of an adult male.

BLOOD ANATOMY The formed elements of blood include two types of blood cells: erythrocytes, or red blood cells, and leukocytes, or white blood cells. Erythrocytes are by far the more numerous of the two. A cubic millimeter of blood contains 5.1 million to 5.8 million erythrocytes in males and 4.3 million to 5.2 million erythrocytes in females. The same volume of blood, by contrast, contains only 5,000 to 9,000 leukocytes.

- The production of formed elements, or blood cells, is called hemopoiesis. Before birth, hemopoiesis occurs primarily in the liver and spleen, but some cells develop in the thymus, lymph nodes, and red bone marrow.ll types of formed elements develop from a single cell type -- stem cell (pleuripotential cells or hemocytoblasts). Seven different cell lines, each controlled by a specific growth factor, develop from the hemocytoblast.

Blood Composition and Formed Elements A protein pigment called hemoglobin (which has iron molecules in it) determines the color of blood because oxygen combines with the iron in hemoglobin which then causes the blood to rust and turn a red color. The other determining factor is oxygen since the color of blood varies with the amount of oxygen it is carrying.

- Blood is considered a type of connective tissue composed of approximately 55 percent intercellular fluid (the plasma) and 45 percent formed elements. The contents of the blood maintain the water content of the body, protect against disease, and maintain an acid-base equilibrium in the internal environment.

- Blood Formed Elements. The formed elements are cells, cell remnants, and cell fragments in the blood. Red blood cells (RBCs or erythrocytes) make up more than 95% of the formed elements. Because they lack a nucleus and organelles, most RBCs in the blood stream are not fully functional cells.ost of the dissolved solutes are proteins. The remaining solutes are a mixture of nutrients, electrolytes, nitrogenous wastes, respiratory gases, and regulatory compounds. Also included in the formed elements are five types of white blood cells (WBCs or leukocytes).

Formed Elements of the Blood Formed Elements of the Blood. the solid fraction of the blood, consisting of erythrocytes, leukocytes, and thrombocytes. The formed elements constitute up to 40 percent of the volume of the blood in lower vertebrates (fishes, amphibians, and reptiles) and up to 54 percent in higher vertebrates (birds and mammals, including man). The most numerous among the formed elements of the blood are the erythrocytes, which contain hemoglobin. They transfer oxygen from the respiratory organs to the tissues and help transfer carbon dioxide in the opposite direction.

Composition of blood Composition of blood Blood transports materials and heat around the body, and helps to protect against disease. It contains: plasma red blood cells white blood cells platelets Plasma is a straw-coloured liquid that makes up just over half the volume of blood. Systemic circulation between the heart and other organs This table explains the functions of various blood components.

- It's not made in a kitchen, but blood has ingredients, just like a recipe. Your body doesn't go to the store to buy those ingredients. It makes them. Bone marrow — that goopy stuff inside your bones — makes the red blood cells, the white blood cells, and the platelets. Plasma is mostly water, which is absorbed from the intestines from what you drink and eat, with the liver supplying important proteins.

Which of the three main kinds of formed elements is most numerous? The most common element in the biosphere is nitrogen. Of the formed elements of blood, the three main kinds are erythrocytes (red blood cells), white blood cells (leukocytes, granulocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, etc.), and platelets. Red blood cells are the most numerous.

Blood Components of Blood. NOTE: This is the Consumer Version. Plasma. Plasma is the liquid component of blood, in which the red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets are suspended. It constitutes more than half of the blood's volume and consists mostly of water that contains dissolved salts (electrolytes) and proteins. The major protein in plasma is albumin.

Blood Composition and Function Blood consists of several elements. The major components of blood include plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. 1  Plasma: This major constituent of blood comprises about 55 percent of blood volume. 2  It consists of water with several different substances dissolved within.3  Plasma contains salts, proteins, and blood cells.lood cells are produced by bone marrow within bone. Bone marrow stem cells develop into red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Certain white blood cells mature in the lymph nodes, spleen, and thymus gland.

Components of the Blood The Role of Blood in the Body. Blood is a bodily fluid in animals that delivers necessary substances such as nutrients and oxygen to the cells and transports metabolic waste products away from those same cells. The components of blood include plasma (the liquid portion, which contains water, proteins, salts, lipids, and glucose ), red blood cells and white blood cells, and cell fragments called platelets.
