Blood \Blood\ (bl[u^]d), n. [OE. blod, blood, AS. bl[=o]d; akin

system of animals, carrying nourishment to all parts of
the body, and bringing away waste products to be excreted.

minute particles, the blood corpuscles. In the
invertebrate animals it is usually nearly colorless,
and contains only one kind of corpuscles; but in all
vertebrates, except Amphioxus, it contains some
colorless corpuscles, with many more which are red and
give the blood its uniformly red color. See
{Corpuscle}, {Plasma}.
