Blood is formed of 2 components namely blood plasma n blood cells.out of these plasma constitutes 55% of the blood n 45% is contributed by blood corpuscles or cells.Out of these cells abt 92-94% r RBC, 0.2% WBC , n 6.7% platelets
Plasma
The hematocrit percentage is the red blood cell percentage per total blood volume.About 40% t0 46% in health males.36% to 40% in healthy females.Varies in age and health conditions.
Leukocyte in fraction i.e. 0/13% platelets are 4.8% of total blood cells
Hematocrit is the proportion of your total blood volume that is composed of red blood cells. If you add the plasma, what you have is a blood sample called a full blood count.
The average blood volume for a laboratory mouse is ~6-8% of total body weight. So a mouse of 20g = 1.2-1.6mL. Note: you will not be able to collect this much blood as this is the total blood volume. The total peripheral blood would be ~ 60-70% of the total blood volume.
BLOOD PLASMA is the yellow liquid component of blood, in which the blood cells in whole blood would normally be suspended. It makes up about 55% of the total blood volume. It is mostly water (90% by volume) and contains dissolved proteins, glucose, clotting factors, mineral ions, hormones and carbon dioxide (plasma being the main medium for excretory product transportation)
Formed elements, which include red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, constitute approximately 45% of the total blood volume. Plasma makes up the remaining 55%.
The hematocrit percentage is the red blood cell percentage per total blood volume.About 40% t0 46% in health males.36% to 40% in healthy females.Varies in age and health conditions.
The number of red blood cells over the total blood volume times 100 equals the percentage of hematocrit.
Add a liquid to the blood that can't be transported out of the lining of the blood vessels. Give it time to spread through the body. Then, take a blood sample and measure the percentage of the liquid in the blood. From the result, the blood volume can be estimated. total blood volume = ((1 - percentage)/percentage) x amount of liquid added

Yes and no.... hemoglobin is the part of the blood that actually carries the oxygen - hematocrit is the measure of red blood cells. The 2 are definitely related but measure differences in the same family
Percentage by Mass = Mass of substance of interest/Total Mass Percentage by Volume = Volume of substance of interest/Total Volume Converting from one to the other requires information about their relative densities.
The average blood volume for a laboratory mouse is ~6-8% of total body weight. So a mouse of 20g = 1.2-1.6mL. Note: you will not be able to collect this much blood as this is the total blood volume. The total peripheral blood would be ~ 60-70% of the total blood volume.
Blood cells are erythrocyte, leukocyte and platelets but the hematocrit is the percentage of the erythrocytes out of the total blood volume.Blood viscosity is a measure of the resistance of blood to flow, which is being deformed by either shear stress or extensional stress.So the relation of between them is they will all talk about blood flow and number of cells of the blood in a range of blood volume.**The relationship is that when red blood cells increases, hematocrit increases, and blood viscosity also increases because too much red blood cells (erythrocytes) in the blood makes the blood more dense/thicker, and therefore slows down the flow of the blood. In short, blood cells, hematocrit, and blood viscosity are all directly proportional with each other.
Given the total Hb concentration, and the mean corpuscular Hb concentration, Hct can be estimated using the formula Hb/MCHC x 100
