<span>The viscosity of blood is highest when hematocrit is higher.

Hematocrit is termed as the volume percentage of red blood cells which is in blood. Hematocrit is the most considered integral parts of person's complete blood count which results together with hemoglobin concentration.

 Platelets and white blood cells also count. The work of red blood cells is to transfer oxygen from lungs to all other parts of the body tissues and to samples of blood of hematocrit.</span>

Viscosity is defined as the ability of a fluid to resist flow. Viscosity of the blood is increased if the hematocrit is increased. Hematocrit is defined as the proportion of red blood cells to the total volume of blood. Hematocrit can be increased by conditions such as polycythemia vera (increased production of red blood cells) and dehydration (decrease in plasma volume).

<em>Viscosity of the blood is determined by the </em><em /><em>hematocrit, red blood cell aggregation and deformability, and plasma viscosity with the hematocrit being the most important. </em>

How do the structures of the cardiac muscle and skin tissue support their functions within the body? (Hint: Think about
zysi [14]

Answer:

The structure of the cell is very much linked with the functions of the cell.The cardiac muscle is made of myocardium which serves the body by providing the blood, nutrients and oxygen.The cardiac muscles appears stripped when seen under microscope.

The skin consists of the tissues and cells which are close enough to create a boundary which does not allows the entry  of materials and pathogens inside the body.

Hence, the function and the morphology of the cells are somewhere related to each other.

ECM is the extracellular matrix, or the set of extracellular molecules secreted by cells with the purpose to support surrounding cells. In plants the cell wall is the ECM and in mammals ECM can be in the form of fibrils and may constitute a significant portion of the bulk of the organism and it also referred as connective tissue.
