Blood

Red or Blue?

Some people think blood is blue or red. While the veins in your skin may appear blue, the blood inside them is always red. Your blood carries oxygen and other gases around the body. Blood is also made up of a clear liquid called plasma, which helps stop the bleeding when you get a cut. The blood also carries many cells that help your body fight disease, waste particles that need to be removed from your body, sugars for energy, and many more things. Your blood performs many important jobs. Scientists are discovering what our Creator has known from the beginning—your blood is an important part of life (Genesis 9:4).
