Study Notes
Blood Composition
- The approximate ratio of erythrocytes (red blood cells) to leukocytes (white blood cells) in the blood is 600:1 to 1000:1.
- The most abundant type of leukocyte in the blood is neutrophils, accounting for approximately 50-70% of total leukocytes.
- The normal range of thrombocytes (platelets) in the blood is 150,000-450,000 per microliter (μL) of blood.
