What is another name for plasma?
The meaning depends on the context. As a physical scientist I know that it is the state of matter (like the surface of the sun) which is composed of an ionized gas. But as a blood donor it is what they want me to give which is my blood MINUS the red blood cells. Over on Wikipedia, they give this information:Plasma may refer to:Blood plasma, the yellow-colored liquid component of blood, in which blood cells are suspendedPlasma (physics), an ionized state of matter similar to a gas Plasma display, a common application of plasma, a flat-panel electronic visual display technologyPlasma antenna, a type of radio antennaPlasma globe or plasma lamp: novelty items that were most popular in the 1980sMilk plasma or whey, the liquid remaining after milk has been curdled and strainedPlasma (KDE), a reimplementation and redesign of the KDE free desktop environment for Unix-Like Operating Systems, such as Linux and FreeBSDPlasma (mineral), bright green chalcedony, sometimes found with small spots of jasper resembling blood dropsPlasma Records, a World Record LabelPlasma effect, a computer-based animated visual effect, used in graphics demonstrationsPlasma (album), the 2003 live album by Trey AnastasioPlasma (comics), a fictional character in the Marvel Universe
Why is plasma found in stars but rarely on earth?
Throughout the Universe, plasma is the most common form of matter, making up over 99% of the visible Universe. The Sun and all the stars are plasma, as is the interplanetary medium (space between the planets), the interstellar medium (space between the stars), and intergalactic medium (space between the galaxies). On Earth, plasma is found in the aurora, the ionosphere, in fire, and lightning, and at the Earth's core. For more information, see: http://www.plasma-universe.com/
Which phase or state of matter has the most kinetic energy?
The physical state, or phase, that has the greatest kinetic energy is gas. In a gas, the molecules are more free to move and they move more rapidly than in the other phases, and it is this motion that constitutes kinetic energy.
What makes up the most of the volume of blood plasma?

Lipoproteins are soluble in lipids; plasma is a suspension in blood.
What chemicals are in your blood?
Blood is cellular material (red blood cells, white blood cells, and plasma), water, amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, hormones, vitamins, electrolytes, dissolved gases, and cellular wastes. The cellular material is 99% red blood cells (about 1/3 hemoglobin by volume). White blood cells and plasma (92% water with plasma proteins - the most abundant solutes being albumins, globulins, and fibrinogens. The primary blood gases are oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen.
What makes up more than half of your blood?
Blood is a mixture of cells and a watery liquid, called plasma, that the cells float in. It also contains other things like nutrients (such as sugar), hormones, clotting agents, and waste products to be flushed out of the body.

What is the most abundant cellular component of whole blood?
The cellular components of blood include red corpuscles (erythrocytes), platelets (thrombocytes), and five types of white corpuscles (leukocytes). Of these, erythrocytes are the most common (37- 54%).
