The straw coloured liquid that makes up a lot of blood is called Plasma.
Plasma is not blood type specific, so it can be given immediately in event of blood loss when the casualties blood group is not known.
The body can regenerate a pint of plasma in about a day, so it is possible to donate this more often than a donation of normal blood, as the red cells take longer to regenerate.

What are the parts of the blood?
The parts of the blood are the formed elements (solid parts) and the plasma (the liquid in which the solid parts are suspended). The formed elements include red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
Solid parts of blood made in bone marrow?
Blood Cells
What are the parts of the solid part of the blood?
Bones Vessels and others
What is the liquid part of blood which carries red blood cells white blood cells and platelets is called?
Your question is unclear - the liquid which carries red and white blood cells and platelets is blood. These cells are the solid component of blood, which separates from the liquid part (plasma) when centrifuged.

Is blood heterogeneous or homogenious?
Blood is quite heterogeneous; there is the actual liquid part (plasma) and then various solid or semi-solid parts suspended it in (the blood cells, for example).
What is the solid parts of the blood called?
The solid part of blood that is made of living cells is referred to as formed elements. The liquid part of blood is called plasma.
Do blood components separate into solid and liquid when a person dies?
Not a "separation", but the blood does clot ... so that both a solid and a liquid phase are there, but they're different from the living solid and liquid parts.
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.)
Is human blood yellow?
No, human whole blood is not yellow. It appears red due to the red blood cells. Blood carrying oxygen is bright red, and blood lower in oxygen is dark red. When the solid parts of blood are separated from the liquid parts, the remaining liquid, called plasma, is yellow.
What is in the liquid and solid portion of the blood?
The solid portion of the blood is mainly made up of red blood cells. There are white blood cells and platelets too.
What are the solid and liquid component blood?
The solid components of blood are red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. The liquid component is called plasma, which carries these cells, nutrients, hormones, and waste products throughout the body.
