Your blood is composed mostly of water and cells because
1-water is very easy to transport and it the water is actually called plasma and is composed of water, nutrients, hormones, ect.
2- the cells are actually
a-Red blood cells (rbc)- which transport oxygen to cells and Co2 away from them
b-White blood cells (wbc)- fight infections and signal body to make histamine with heats up tissues which can kill pathogens(germs), and cool fact wbc actually have their own sys. called the lymphatic sys. but don't have a muscel to move them, i.e. heart, so they relay on muscle movements.
c-pallets- clog leaks, when you get a cut your pallets reproduce quickly and join together and become a scab
And just to creep you out, you have billions of bacteria in your stomach that help digest food and your stomach is their earth.
