Best Answer

Inside a network of blood vessels (arteries, arterioles, capillaries, veins, venules).

While the length of some of these blood vessels are minuscule, if you could add all their lengths together, that would make 100 000 km in an average human body.

And that's about twice the circumference of the Earth !

Blood is transported around the body through arteries and veins which carry it from the heart (arteries) and back to the heart (veins). The heart is the pumping muscle that pushes the blood through the system
