Blood carries white blood cells(immune cells) and anti bodies which protect the body from micro-organisms that can cause harm.It also clots any cuts in the vessels to prevent blood loss.
(I just outlined them.one other function is maintaining pH(acid-base balance) of the body.hope it helps!:))
What else can I help you with?
Is sodium chloride passive transport or an active transport?
Active because concentration in cells must remain hight than in the blood.
Why oxygen molecules in the tissues of the lung go into the blood and then in other tissues the oxygen molecules leave the blood.?
This process is thru the use of passive transport. The oxygen in you lungs are of a higher concentration than it is in your blood and since hemoglobin likes oxygen it moves naturally into the the blood supply in the lungs. Your blood is then returned to the heart and pumped throughout the body. Because your blood has more oxygen in it than your cells do the blood thru the use of passive transport again give the oxygen to the cells and pick up waste product and carbon dioxide to be returned eventually to the heart. Your blood is then returned to the lungs where the blood once again disposes of the carbon dioxide thru the use of passive transport and picks up oxygen.
What other types of transport did they use other than walking?
horses and carreges.
What are the functions of commercial banks in Kenya other than the normal banking functions?
functions of kenya commercial bank
What are advantages of airways?
we can move faster than other transport
How does water transport compare with other kinds?
Water transport is preferred for transporting bulky goods over long distances economically, as ships can carry large quantities of cargo. It is slower than air transport but faster than road or rail transport for long distances. Water transport is also more environmentally friendly compared to other modes of transport.
Why are veins more numerous than arteries?
Veins have ability to store blood but arteries not so they are more some for blood storage and some for blood transport to right arteria.
Why is water transport cheaper than the other means of transport?
Because you don't have to build roads over water.
Does your blood only look blue because of your skin color?
No. Everyones blood looks blue while in the body. The bodily functions are the same for everyone( other than people with medical issues) skin color isn't related
Are there more erythrocytes than leukocytes?
Yes, there are typically many more erythrocytes (red blood cells) than leukocytes (white blood cells) in the blood. The ratio of red blood cells to white blood cells is about 600:1. This difference in numbers reflects the different functions and roles of these two types of blood cells in the body.
What are the 3 main functions of the circulatory system?
there are more than 4. transports deoxygenated blood from heart to lungs and oxygenated blood from the lungs to teh heart. transports oxygenated blood from teh heart to tissues and deoxygenated blood from teh tissues to teh heart. distributes nutrients (e.g. glucose, free fatty acids, amino acids) to cells removes metabolic wastes (e.g. carbon dioxide, urea, lactate) from periphery for elimination or reuse. regulates pH to control acidosis and alkalosis transports hormones and enzymes to regulate physiological function maintains fluid balance to prevent dehydration maintains body temperature by abosorbing and redistributing heat.
What is the function of blood?
It carries oxygen to cells Carries waste (carbon dioxide, Urea and lactic acid - via diffusion) away from cells Carries various disease-fighting cells such as the "white" blood cells. Part of the body's self-repair mechanism (blood clotting after an open wound in order to stop bleeding - using 'Platelets') Regulation of body PH. Regulation of core body temperature. the 3 are 1_respiration 2_oxygen 2_carbon
