Blood Origin
Blood is a body fluid in the circulatory system of humans and other vertebrates that delivers necessary substances such as nutrients and oxygen to the cells, and transports metabolic waste products away from those same cells. Blood in the circulatory system is also known as ''peripheral blood'', and the blood cells it carries, ''peripheral blood cells''. Blood is composed of blood cells suspended in blood plasma. Plasma, which constitutes 55% of blood fluid, is mostly water (92% by volume), and contains proteins, glucose, mineral ions, hormones, carbon dioxide (plasma being the main medium for excretory product transportation), and blood cells themselves. Albumin is the main protein in plasma, and it functions to regulate the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood. The blood cells are mainly red blood cells (also called RBCs or erythrocytes), white blood cells (also called WBCs or leukocytes) and platelets (also called thrombocytes). The most abundant cells in vert ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Young Wallander
''Young Wallander'' is a crime drama streaming television series, based on Henning Mankell's fictional Inspector Kurt Wallander. The series premiered on Netflix on 3 September 2020. Star Adam Pålsson explained that the pre-imagining (i.e., ''Young Wallander'' being set in the present day) made more sense than a straight prequel, as it allowed for the social commentary which is a strong element of Mankell's original ''Wallander''. This choice of setting the series in the modern day has been criticised in a number of reviews. In November 2020, the series was renewed for a second season, which was premiered on Netflix on 17 February 2022, subtitled as ''Killer's Shadow''.
