9. Blood plasma is a clear, almost colorless liquid. It consists of blood from
which the red and white blood cells have been removed. It is often used in
transfusions because a patient generally needs the plasma portion of the
blood more than the other components.
Plasma differs in several important ways from whole blood. First of
all, plasma can be mixed for all donors and does not have to be from the
right blood group, as whole blood does. In addition, plasma can be dried
and stored, while whole blood cannot.

plasma EXCEPT:

10. The next hormone is epinephrine, or adrenaline. This hormone is a natural
secretion of the adrenal glands in the human body. Its primary function in the
human body is to assist the body in coping with sudden surges of stress. When a
person unexpectedly finds himself in a stressful situation filled with fear or anger, a
large amount of epinephrine is released into the blood and the body responds with
na increased heartbeat, higher blood pressure, and conversion of glycogen into
glucose for energy to enable the body to deal with the stress.
It is possible to extract epinephrine from the adrenal glands of animals or to
synthesize it chemically in order to put it to further use. It is used in the treatment
of severe asthma, where it relaxes the large muscles of the bronchi, the large air
passages leading into the lungs. It is also used in cases of severe allergic reaction
or cardiac arrest.
