✍️Blood is a fluid connective tissue. In this tissue cells (or corpuscles) move in a fluid or liquid matrix or a medium called blood plasma. The blood plasma does not contain protein fibre but contains cells called blood corpuscles or blood cells. These blood corpuscles oe cells are:
1)Red blood cells or erythrocytes
2)White blood cells or lucocytes
3)platelets
-RBCs and WBCs are living, while plasma and platelets are non living.
-Red blood cells are large in number and have iron containing red respiratory pigment the hemoglobin.
-It plays a important role in transport of oxygen.
1)Blood transports nutrients, hormones and vitamins to the tissue and transport excretory products from the tissue to the liver and kidney.
2)The red blood cells carry oxygen to the tissue for the oxidation of food stuff.
3)Blood platelets disintegrate at the site of injury and help in the clotting of the blood.
