Answer 1

The normal hematocrit range for males is 42-52% with a mean of 47, while for females it is 37-47% with a mean of 41.

Step-by-step explanation:

The normal hematocrit range for males is 42-52% with a mean of 47, while for females it is 37-47% with a mean of 41. Hematocrit is the volume of erythrocytes (red blood cells) after centrifugation, also known as packed cell volume (PCV). The hematocrit can vary depending on gender and other factors, but these ranges are considered normal.
