Why is plasma a fluid?
plasma is the liquid part of the blood
Can you touch plasma?
Probably not, otherwise they would combine. You could consider a plasma flow rather like a fluid consisting of a mixture of free electrons and ionized atoms, but because of the temperatures involved, they are fast moving and widely separated. The glow in a plasma is of ocurse, produced by electrons descending from a higher energy state to one of lower energy, thus giving up a quantum of the particular characteristic light frequency. The main particles are the ionized atoms, and they are more separate than the same atoms would be in a gas.
What is colorless tissue fluid called?
Lymph One of them could be plasma.
Particles of a fluid attract each other?
what are the particles of a fluid that attract eachother are called
What is the structural model of the plasma membrane called-?
structural model of plasma membrane is called the selectively permeable membrane Structural model of the plasma membrane is called Fluid Mosaic Model.
Is plasma in a blister the same plasma that is in a tv?
No, the plasma in blister is the term in biology and is the fluid medium of the blood. The plasma in a television is the term in physics and is ionized gas in plasma state.
What does plasm mean?
# The clear, yellowish fluid portion of blood, lymph, or intramuscular fluid in which cells are suspended. It differs from serum in that it contains fibrin and other soluble clotting elements. # Blood plasma. # Medicine. Cell-free, sterilized blood plasma, used in transfusions. # Protoplasm or cytoplasm. # The fluid portion of milk from which the curd has been separated by coagulation; whey. # Physics. An electrically neutral, highly ionized gas composed of ions, electrons, and neutral particles. It is a phase of matter distinct from solids, liquids, and normal gases.
List the fluid compartments that could be defined as extracellular?
Interstitial fluid, plasma, and transcellular fluid.
Does a star contain plasma?
Yes. Plasma is one of the four fundamental states of matter. The four states are, plasma, solid, liquid, and gas. Plasma is a state of matter where particles are in a charged state either positive or negative. However, since your question is in the category "Blood," I think you are asking if the plasma in the sun is the same as the plasma in your blood. Answer: No, there is no blood plasma in the sun; and no, there is no matter in the plasma state in your blood. Blood plasma is a straw-colored/pale-yellow fluid component of blood that carries all of the "solid" components of blood (red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, nutrients, etc.)
What is the fluid part of fluid?
plasma
What is collective behavior in plasma physics?
The definition teaches us: plasma is a set of quasi-neutral particles with free electric charge carriers, which behave collectively. Let us analyze each part of this definition. The most important part is that free electric charge carriers are found in the plasma state of matter. Atoms are at least partially ionized. The degree of ionization does not have to be too large, if the size of the plasma formation is big enough. Precisely a plasma is different from a gas in that there are free carriers of charge in the former. A plasma is conductive and reacts strongly to electric and magnetic fields. The second quality is its quasi-neutrality. Let us assume a certain volume, which microscopically shows in average the same quantity of positive and negative particles. Seen from the outside, the plasma behaves as if it were a fluid without charge (liquid or gas). The demanding of quasi-neutrality excludes the beams of charged particles from the definition of plasma. The last part of the definition of plasma is its collective behaviour. With this it is understood that plasma as a whole is capable of processes that generate electric and magnetic fields to which plasma can react in turn. The plasma definition does not include the beams of charged particles since they do not fulfill the requirement of quasi-neutrality. Neither are included the very weekly ionized gases, like the flame of a candle (they do not fulfill the requirement of collective behaviour). The plasma concept was used for the first time by Irwing Langmuir(1881-1957).
Which state of matter are the particles able to move around one another?
All the fluid states: liquid, gas, plasma being some examples.

What separates the intracellular and extracellular fluid compartments?
The barrier that separates the interstitial fluid from the intracellular fluid is the plasma membrane. The interstitial fluid is a major component of the extracellular fluid.
Does plasma comprise the fluid or the solid portion of the blood?
Fluid
what mineral is widely distributed in plasma and tissue fluid?
The most widely distributed mineral in plasma and tissue fluid is sodium.
