People are in very bad accidents everyday, they loose blood and its our jobs as fellow Americans to help save them. That's why Red Cross has blood drives, without the blood to help the people in the hospital, they would probably die.
For muscles to contract there needs to be an adequate supply of ATP within the cell. ATP is generated in part by a supply of glucose and oxidative phosphorylation. An inadequate supply of blood will not provide enough oxygen to keep up with the energy demands of contraction.
The liver and kidneys are examples of organs that have dual blood supply. They receive blood from both the hepatic portal system and the hepatic artery (liver) and from the renal artery and renal vein (kidneys). This dual blood supply is important for their functions in filtering and processing blood.
Why is it important to keep the blood healthy?
because they supply blood to the body
it pumps blood throughout the body and supply energy it can keep pumping blood cells throughout the body
They use it to build and keep themselves strong, healthy, and supporting.
Cysts do not have their blood supply. They receive nutrients and oxygen through diffusion from nearby blood vessels in the surrounding tissue.

Blood is stored within a blood bank because it will keep the blood fresh and preserved until it is sent off to hospitals that need it for patients that are in critical condition. There is a constant demand for blood donations as hosptials always need to have an ample supply to treat patients, so blood banks help out by by always increasing their supply whenever they can so that they can continously deliver them to hospitals. Most areas will have a blood bank in their vicinity that can be contacted with regards to any questions that concern this topic.
the mother's blood can supply the embryo with the food and oxygen that needs to grow
The uterus supplies nourishment to the developing foetus - a plentiful blood supply ensures maximum transfer of energy from the mother to the unborn baby.
This is a good question! You have to keep heart inside the cage. Because it is important structure. So you have thoracic cage. You can avoid aortic arch by keeping the heart in inverted position. But in that case blood flow would have gushed to the lower extremity. Important organs like brain would get less blood supply. Unimportant organs like lower extremity will get more blood supply. To avoid this problems the heart is placed in upright position. It has got the mechanical advantage. The brain and upper extremity gets direct blood supply. The arch will not create any problem to the blood flow. There is no sudden folding of the blood vessel. That would create problems to the smooth flow of the blood. Cells in the blood are very much delicate ones. They would have got ruptured. That would have created havoc. There will be clotting of the blood inside the blood vessels. Due to arch structure of aorta, important organs get initial high blood pressure. These are the obvious mechanical reasons. Someone should improve the answer.
