question 23 1 pts blood viscosity stems mainly from the red blood cells but also partly from the ____ in blood. glucose molecules present lipid molecules present formed elements protein molecules present
Blood viscosity is mainly due to red blood cells. Proteins in blood, like plasma proteins (e.g., albumin, globulins), also contribute to viscosity. Glucose and lipid molecules have a negligible impact on blood viscosity compared to proteins. Formed elements mainly refer to blood cells (red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets), and the question already mentions red blood cells as the main contributor, so the other part is from protein molecules.
