white blood sells patch up wounds such as cuts red blood cells carry oxygen platelets stop your cut from bleeding
Red bone marrow produces platelets as well as RBCs and WBCs.
Largest In infants and shrinks with age
An increase in RBCs, WBCs, and Platelets (as opposed to pancytopenia, which is a decrease in those)
Blood Composition * Plasma * RBCs * White Blood Cells * Blood Platelets
platelets is cell fragments! the function is to release proteins to help blood to clot! :)
RBC's do not have a nucleus to make them more efficient at carrying oxygen and to reduce their size so they can squeeze through small blood vessels and capilaries more effectively. Platelets are essentially cell fragments. They are not cells themselves. They help in the formation of blood clots and are involved in other important hemostatic processes
because there is only the defects in function of platelets in hemophilia and not reduction in number of platelets!
to transport oxygen all around the body.
Blood has a fluid matrix called plasma in which red blood corpuscles [RBCs]and white blood corpuscles[WBCs] and blood platelets are suspended. the main function is that blood transports gases ,digested foods,hormones to different parts of the body.
Blood is made up of about 45% solids, platelets, RBCs and WBCs, and 55% of plasma.
Only Red Blood Cells (RBCs) contain hemoglobin. The white cells do not and the platelets (fragments of cells) do not.
If you spin a blood sample in a centrifuge, formed elements sink to the bottom of a test tube because they are denser than plasma. RBCs, representing the bulk of the formed elements, settle to the bottom. WBCs and platelets appear just above RBCs in a thin, grayish layer. So your answer is red blood cells.
