Plasma, the liquid component of blood, primarily consists of water (about 90-92%), which serves as a solvent for various substances. It contains proteins such as albumin, globulins, and fibrinogen, as well as electrolytes, hormones, nutrients, and waste products. Additionally, plasma carries gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide, facilitating their transport throughout the body. Overall, plasma plays a crucial role in maintaining blood pressure, volume, and overall homeostasis.

Do all types of cells have plasma membranes?
YES... All LIVING cells have plasma membranes. Not every cell contains cell wall, but plasma membrane is essential for the life of a cell. If the cell loses its membrane or the membrane is ruptured, the cell will lose its cellular form and all the contents of the cell would be wasted and it would not be called a cell after that.
