What is the realcolorof blood?
Question:
Answers:
Blood has to be RED.
When you get a BLOOD TEST or have BLOOD DRAWN, it NEVER hits the oxygen making it turn red! It is RED when it is drawn out of the body.
When it HITS the AIR or OXYGEN then it gets a SMELL.
First thing: Blood is *never* blue. Blood is described as dark red (venous) or bright red (arterial). Our veins look blue because we are looking at them *through* our skin. The blood inside them is dark red and it doesn't reflect light very well. The blood you see when you get hurt is usually venous blood. Arterial blood comes out in spurts. It spurts every time the heart beats. I hope you never see that.
An average adult has about 14 to 18 pints of Blood.
One standard unit or pint of Blood equals about two cups.

Each Blood type is either Rh positive or negative.

Red Blood cells can be stored under normal conditions for up to 42 days.
Frozen red Blood cells can be stored for ten years, and more.

The color of blood can depend on several factors, how much oxygen is in, and how fresh it is. It can vary in hue, but is always reddish in tint. Going anywhere from an almost black deep red, garnet or burgandy, to being tinged with blue.

Blood is NEVER blue. Venous blood is dark red, Arterial blood is bright red. Your veins look blue because you're looking at them through the skin, the blood inside them is dark red and doesn't reflect light very well.
So, blood isn't blue, nor does it look blue. Veins, which are whitish in color look blue because they are filled with the darker oxygen depleated venous blood, and the skin difuses the light causing the bluish tint.
It's really surprising how many people still believe that your blood is blue until it comes in contact with air.
