Did you know that blood isn't really red! The

red-blood cells make it look red. A little more than half of

your blood is a yellowish liquid called plasma. The other

parts are floating red-blood cells. Red blood cells are the

cells that take the needs of the cells to each cells. White

blood cells are the cells that protect your blood. There is

one white blood cell in every eight red blood cells.

Chapter 4: Keep the Circulatory System Healthy

These are four tips for keeping the circulatory system healthy

1. You need to exercise You need to be active and do sports for at least

30 minutes a day. For example, you can jump rope, dance, or play

soccer. When you exercise your heart produces more red-blood cells

than ever so it can give you more oxygen.

blood vessels by making the gas exchange

Chapter 6:Conclusion

I really liked

researching about the

circulatory system. I think it is

the best system because it

controls all your blood and

makes your cells stay healthy.My favorite part about this

system was thinking about the

great path that the circulatory

system. The blood is amazing

because it carries many things.

Its impressive to have

miniature things carrying all

the things your cells need.

Definitely with no blood you

wouldn't live.

blood. One barrel contains about 55 gallons!

Each day your heart pumps 100,000 times!
