Plasmas can be thought of consisting of elements that have "lost one or more electron", or become "ionized". Consequently, most plasmas contain a mixture of electrons, and positive ions such as protons. Since protons and electrons could recombine to form hydrogen gas, this mixture of particles is sometimes called a hydrogen plasma, because its components could make up hydrogen, even though there may be no hydrogen present.

If you mean gas plasma rather than blood plasma, then plasma is usually a gas that has been stripped of an electron by an alternating electric field. The gas becomes very hot because of this and lots of unusual chemical reactions can take place inside a gas plasma.

No, plasma actually is a thought matter. Scientist aren't sure if it should be categorized as a state of matter though.
