Answers
Answer: thrombocytes aka platelets
Explanation:
Answer:
Significant role of blood clotting takes place by Thrombocytes.
Thrombocytes are also called as Blood platelets.
They are generally around 250,000 per mm³.
They frequently lack nucleus.
The cytoplasm is colourless.
They are irregularly shaped cell fragments formed from the cytoplasm of large cells.
Heparin is an anti coagulant present in the blood which prevents clotting of blood inside the blood vessel.
The plasma also contains thrombocytes.
Other Formed elements of blood -
- Erthrocytes or RBCs
- Leucocytes or WBCs
Erthrocytes are circular or biconcave from the side. They transport Oxygen and Carbon dioxide. They contain haemoglobin. They lack nucleus.
Leucocytes are round or irregular shaped. They protect against diseases. They do not contain haemoglobin but contain nucleus. They are of 2 types - Granulocytes and Agranulocytes. The granulocytes contains Eosinophils, Basophils and Neutrophils. The Agranulocytes contains Monocytes and Lymphocytes.
