Blood is made up of four main components: plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, as well as platelets. The hue of blood varies depending on the amount of oxygen it carries. Blood is denser than water. Blood is somewhat alkaline, with a pH of 7.35 to 7.45 and has a temperature of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit. Blood makes up about 8% of our weight. “The lungs and tissues receive oxygen and nourishment via blood. To avoid excessive blood loss, blood clots are formed. harboring infection-fighting...
