Fifty percent of the blood consists of plasma

Blood is a special body fluid that provides the body with oxygen, nutrition, temperature control and waste removal.  Blood is composed of about 55 percent plasma. Plasma is the liquid part of blood which contains red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Plasma consists mostly of water that has dissolved salts and proteins (albumin, antibodies) that perform functions such as helping blood to clot, defending the body against pathogens and movement of substances through the blood.

All movement are locomotion but not all locomotion are movement​
Vladimir [108]
Some may assume that movement and locomotion are the same, but these two words have certain differences. Movement is known to be the time when a living organism will move from one place to another. Locomotion means that the movement that the living organism did has made changes to the current position of the organism.

Which organic molecule would a long-distance runner most likely choose to eat before a race?
Over [174]
Biomolecules are organic compounds that are present as essential components of living things. There are four major biomolecules namely lipids, proteins, carbohydrates and nucleic acids. Proteins, lipids and glucose are usually used by organisms as energy sources as well as structural components among other functions in living organisms. Nucleic acids are important components that bring about heredity. In this case the appropriate molecule to be chosen by the long distance learner would be carbohydrate because it stores and may be used as a source of energy.
