reciprocal of viscosity. Fluidity characterizes the rate at which the shape of a substance or liquid changes. For example, it determines the deformability of the erythrocyte when passing through the capillaryn and thus contributes, as does the number of red leaf corpuscles in the volumeunit, to the size of the resistance of the bloodes in the vascular system.
