Do humans have blue blood in some parts of your body?
No. Absolutely not! You have varying shades of red only. This is a common misconception because the pigments in our skin and the linings of our veins make it look as if we have blood in our veins. We have deep dark maroon colored blood when there is little oxygen in it, and we have bright scarlet red blood when it has its full capacity of oxygen. Then all the shades in between depend on how much oxygen and/or carbon dioxide is in the blood at the time.

Arteries are buried much deeper than veins. Near the heart you can see them throb with the pulse. If you pierce one, the blood spurts out, sometimes in rhythym with the heartbeat. The blood is bright red. Veins are darker in color, don't show a pulse, and don't spurt, but rather drain more slowly. The blood is a darker color from dark red to purple or maroon. In a first aid context, look for the bright red color and stop the arterial bleeding first, best with direct pressure.
