Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Blood is the fluid connective tissue present in the body of vertebrates. It is homogeneous and thick with cellular components. The cells present in it are known as formed elements. These cells are suspended in plasma, which is a nonliving fluid matrix. The total volume of the blood constituted by erythrocytes or red blood cells is known as hematocrit.
