    Hello mates,a random scientifc question your way! i think its cool and fun to know,whats the difference between Blue Blood and Red Blood?!!

    Blood comes in the blue form when it has not received oxygen.

    Red blood is formed when it is exposed to oxygen. That is why blood is red when you get a cut.

    lol sorry to bust ur bubble nobody, but blood is red inside and out....it's just the color of the type of blood vessel....there's no such thing as "blue blood"

    Ummmm Danielle

    Study biology darling OR even do a google search because Nobody was 110% correct in saying:
    Blood comes in the blue form when it has not received oxygen.

    Red blood is formed when it is exposed to oxygen. That is why blood is red when you get a cut.

    Its true do some research and then apologise for being wrong :o)

    The iron-containing pigments found in blood include haemoglobins (red), myoglobins (red), chlorocruorins (green) and haemerythrins (violet). Haemocyanin (blue), which is found in horseshoe crabs and other organisms, contains copper not iron

    Scientifically explained well honey but there is another form of blue blood meaning born of aristocracy or noble blood lines such as royalty - only a figure of speech I know but still deserves a mention xx
