What is blood
Blood is a connective tissue in liquid form that is known as fluid of life( because it carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body and carbon dioxide from all parts is the big to the lung),fliid of growth ( because it carries nutritive substance s from the endocrine glands, hormones and digestive system to all the body tissue) and fluid of health ( because it protects the body from diseases and removes waste products with the use of the excretory organs)

-Arterial blood (which is the blood that is pumped from the heart throughout the body) is red in color because it is oxygen rich -Venous blood (which is the blood that returns to the heart after circulating throughout the body) is purple red because it is carbon dioxide rich -Average blood volume in a normal adult is 5L -Average blood volume in a newborn is 450ml, it increases during growth and reaches 5L at puberty -Blood takes about 8% of the body weight -Blood is slightly alkaline and has a pH of 7.4 in normal condition -The specific gravity of blood is 1.05-1.06g/L -Blood is five times more viscous than water because of the red blood cells and plasma protein
