GlossaryPlasma

liquid part of blood carrying cells and nutrients

Plasma is the liquid component of blood that makes up about 55% of its total volume. It is primarily composed of water, but also contains proteins, electrolytes, hormones, and waste products. Plasma plays a crucial role in transporting nutrients, hormones, and proteins to the parts of the body that need them, and it also helps in the removal of waste products from the body.
