The red fluid that circulates through the body, carrying oxygen and nutrients to tissues and carrying away waste.

Beyond biology, blood is used to describe family relationships, as in blood relatives, and to describe intense conflict or violence, as in bloodshed. Doctors regularly test blood to check for illness, and donating blood remains an important way people help save lives.
