What are the main components found in blood?

Answer:
  • Thrombocytes (Platelets) ~ 54.3%
  • Erythrocytes (Red Blood Cells) ~ 45%
  • Leukocytes (White Blood Cells) ~ 0.7%


Red blood cells carry dissolved substances around the body, eg. Oxygen.
White blood cells are part of the immune system, defending against unknown materials.
Platelets help your blood clot if your skin ruptures, to stop it from bleeding further.
