What is a blood plasma?

• Blood's liquid portion is called plasma. Whole blood is made up of platelets, red, white, and other blood cells that float in your plasma. 5 to 6 quarts (5 litres) of blood make up your body.
• The blood cells can be seen streaming in the plasma, a liquid component that is 95% water.
• It is a straw-yellow, viscous fluid that makes up around 55–60% of the entire blood supply.
• Water, minerals, carbohydrates, proteins, and clotting components like fibrinogen are all present.

Function of blood plasma-

• Dispersing water where it is required by your body.
• Supplying proteins, hormones, and nutrients to various body areas while also assisting in the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
• Preventing the collapse or blockage of blood vessels.
• Maintaining circulation and blood pressure.
• Balancing heat production and absorption to control body temperature.
• Transferring waste from cells to your liver, lungs, and kidneys for elimination
• Aiding in blood clotting
• Protection from infections caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites.

• The plasma contains clotting elements that aid in blood coagulation.
• It aids in the movement of hormones, nutrients, electrolytes, and other vital chemicals throughout the body.
• By delivering waste materials to the liver, lungs, kidneys, or skin, it aids in the removal of waste products.
• It has immunoglobulins and antibodies that combat infections.
• Blood plasma contains substances that work as buffers, helping plasma to keep its pH within normal bounds, supporting cell function.
