        Help  

Question
Answer
What are the four things blood is made of?   red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, plasma  
What three things do the red blood cells carry around the body?   oxygen, nutrients (food), waste  
When I say circulatory, you say   blood  
these blood vessels carry oxygen blood AWAY from the heart to the rest of the body   arteries  
these blood vessels carry blood with waste back to the heart and lungs   veins  
these are the smallest blood vessels that go to every cell in the body   capillaries  
blood cells have to travel in a single file line through these blood vessels   capillaries  
Blood that doesn't have oxygen has to go to this organ to get oxygen   lungs  
this organ pumps the blood to the lungs or the rest of the body   heart  
this part of the blood helps your body to heal cuts and stop bleeding   platelets  
this part of the blood helps your body fight diseases   white blood cells  
this part of the blood carries oxygen throughout the body   red blood cells  
this part of the blood is like a river for the other blood parts to float in   plasma  
blood that has given away all their oxygen, travels back through the veins to these two organs   heart and lungs
