Solution

The cells that are characteristic of blood are:

  1. Thrombocytes: Also known as platelets, these cells are responsible for blood clotting. When there's an injury or cut, thrombocytes gather at the site and stick together, forming a clot to stop bleeding.

  2. Erythrocytes: These are also known as red blood cells. They carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body, and bring carbon dioxide back to the lungs to be exhaled.

  3. Leukocytes: These are the white blood cells. They are part of the immune system and work to fight off infections and diseases.

Osteocytes and Fibrocytes are not characteristic of blood. Osteocytes are found in bone and Fibrocytes are found in connective tissues.
