Message definition (Blood)
Blood accounts for 7% of the human body weight, with an average density around 1060&nbsp;kg/m<sup>3</sup>, very close to pure water's density of 1000&nbsp;kg/m<sup>3</sup>. The average adult has a [[blood volume]] of roughly {{convert|5|L|USpt|lk=in}} or 1.3 gallons, which is composed of plasma and ''formed elements''. The formed elements are the two types of blood cell or ''corpuscle'' – the [[red blood cell]]s, (erythrocytes) and [[white blood cell]]s (leukocytes), and the cell fragments called [[platelet]]s that are involved in clotting. By volume, the red blood cells constitute about 45% of whole blood, the plasma about 54.3%, and white cells about 0.7%.

Blood accounts for 7% of the human body weight, with an average density around 1060 kg/m3, very close to pure water's density of 1000 kg/m3. The average adult has a blood volume of roughly 5 litres (11 US pt) or 1.3 gallons, which is composed of plasma and formed elements. The formed elements are the two types of blood cell or corpuscle – the red blood cells, (erythrocytes) and white blood cells (leukocytes), and the cell fragments called platelets that are involved in clotting. By volume, the red blood cells constitute about 45% of whole blood, the plasma about 54.3%, and white cells about 0.7%.
