What part of the human body that produce blood?


Question:
how blood was develop and what particular part of the human body do the production.

Answers:
Blood cells are produced in the bone marrow; the process is termed hematopoiesis. The proteinaceous component is produced overwhelmingly in the liver, while hormones are produced by the endocrine glands and the watery fraction maintained by the gut and the kidney.
Blood cells are degraded by the spleen and the Kupffer cells in the liver. The liver also clears proteins and amino acids. The kidney secretes many small proteins into the urine. Erythrocytes usually live up to 120 days before they are systematically replaced by new erythrocytes created by the process of hematopoiesis.

bone marrow, the sternum produces the most Bone Marrow


Bone marrow produces red blood cells and the rest of the blood is mostly water. Not much blood is produced since the body does not get rid of it but keeps re-circulating it. The blood goes to the lungs from the heart to pick up a lot of oxygen. Then back to heart and then to entire body to deliver oxygen and pick up waste. Then some of it becomes lymph fluid which returns to heart and the rest of the blood returns to the heart.
