Question

Describe various types of blood cells along with their functions?

Answer 1

Types Of Blood Cells:

Red blood cells (Erythrocytes)

• They are present in ample amount in the blood (40% to 45%).
• They are red in colour because they contain a special pigment called haemoglobin.
• The oxygen we take in binds itself with the haemoglobin and hence reaches every cell of the body through the blood.

White blood cells (Leukocytes)

• They are present in fewer amounts (almost 1%) but perform a vital function in the body.
• These cells fight against the germs present in the body.

Blood platelets

• These are the cells that help in the formation of a blood clot and prevent the blood from flowing out of the body due to an injury.
