Introduction

6. Blood is a biological fluid in the body composed of plasma and blood cells. Leukocytes (WBC), erythrocytes (RBC), and thrombocytes (platelets) are the major cell types in the blood. 

The presence/absence of two antigens (A and B)  and two antibodies (anti-A and anti-B) in the blood determine the blood group (A, B, AB, and O).
