What factors determine the color of an animal's blood?
Oxygen and hemoglobin. Without oxygen, human blood is blue, and animals with the same colored blood would be blue without oxygen, but since oxygen flows through most animals systems, their mostly red. Besides that of the octopus, which has blue blood due to hemocyanin. The ocelated icefish has a lack of both hemoglobin and hemocynin, leaving its blood clear. The Papua New Guinea skink however has green blood due to the fact that the skink uses biliverdin in its blood, leading it to turn green. Overall, hemoglobin and hemocyanin are the two causes of blood color, along with their byproducts. Hope it helps!
