I already know what plasma is, but after talking to friends repeatedly on the subject of Halo, I have discovered that very few of them actually know what plasma is. I wanted to poll everybody to see just how many people know.

After the poll reaches its end I will post it so everyone knows.

BARRRRRRRRRRRRON! He said NOT to post with the answer, since he already knew it. He just wanted to see how many people also knew.

I'm surprised that 6 out of the 9 were wrong. I was one of the 3. :) *smug*

Well, I read the question, and immediately went to find the answer to the problem. I didn't even read the whole post! *sigh*

plasma is not "something" its a group-type name that loosely defines a liquid used to transport cells*, like the plasma that transports red blood cells throughout our bodies.



*usually. this is a pretty vague, unscientific description. blood plasma (which forms 90% of "blood") contains, variously, hormones, vitamins salts and glucose.

actaully (at the risk of sounding like a geek) plasma is also a type of matter, like solid, liquid, and gas. only plasma is the 4th matter type, and is neither a solid, liquid, or gas. its a bit of everything, and a bit of neither.

least, thats what i got out of my science teacher.

plasma is a concentration of high heated gas and liquid but it has a impact like a solid but splats like a liquid and flys outta the gun like a gas
It is one of the only things that can change state almost instant

Okay, the replies are just dumb now. Plasma is an ionized gas. It's a collection of ions and electrons no longer bound to each other. It's not -blam!- hot Jell-o.

Some clarification for those of you who are still unsure what plasma is. Fire, your common everyday fire, is a type of plasma.
