We have seen blood consist of cells known as formed elements of blood. These cells have their own functions and roles to play in the body. The blood cells which circulate all around the body are as follows:
Red blood cells (Erythrocytes)
RBCs are the biconcave cells; also known as erythrocytes. RBCs contain the iron-rich protein called haemoglobin; give blood its red colour. RBCs are the most copious blood cell produced in bone marrows. Their main function is to transport oxygen from and to various tissues and organs.
White blood cells (Leucocytes)
Leucocytes are the colourless blood cells. They are colourless because it is devoid of haemoglobin. They further classified as granulocytes and agranulocytes. WBCs mainly contribute to immunity and defence mechanism.
