Blood is the body's transport medium: it transports substances around the body. It carries hormones, nutrients, water and oxygen to places they are required(eg the muscles) and transports waste products such as carbon dioxide to places where they can be excreted. In a pregnant woman, the mother's and baby's blood exchange these substances, though they each have different blood supplies.
White bloods cells(leukocytes) are also carried in blood as part of the immune system, protecting the body against infections.
