Human blood temperature is 37 degrees C or 98.6 degrees F, the same goes for the plasma found in blood. The plasma found in your blood is not the same as the 4th state of matter of the same name.

Blood plasma is the straw-colored/pale-yellow liquid component of blood that normally holds the blood cells in whole blood in suspension.

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.)
