With reference to human blood, which of the following statements is/are correct?
1. In a healthy male, the percentage of haemoglobin is more as compared to what it is in a normal healthy female.
2. The normal value of platelet counts in human blood ranges from 2,00,000 to 4,50,000 c.mm.
Select the correct answer using the code given below:

Correct option is C

Statement 1 is correct: In general, healthy males have higher haemoglobin levels than females. The average haemoglobin level in males is around 13.8 to 17.2 grams per deciliter, while in females, it is approximately 12.1 to 15.1 grams per deciliter. This is due to hormonal differences and variations in muscle mass.

Statement 2 is correct: The normal range of platelet counts in human blood is indeed between 1,50,000 to 4,50,000 platelets per cubic millimeter (c.mm.), making this statement correct as well.
