2. Carbon dioxide ; red blood corpuscles

3. Oxygen; white blood corpuscles

4. Carbon dioxide; white blood corpuscles

​

Answer 1

Answer:

The average human adult has more than 5 liters (6 quarts) of blood in his or her body. Blood carries oxygen and nutrients to living cells and takes away their waste products. It also delivers immune cells to fight infections and contains platelets that can form a plug in a damaged blood vessel to prevent blood loss.

Through the circulatory system, blood adapts to the body's needs. When you are exercising, your heart pumps harder and faster to provide more blood and hence oxygen to your muscles.

Answer 2

X is oxygen and Y is red blood corpuscles.

The haemoglobin is the oxygen and carbon dioxide transporting pigment that is seen inside the higher animals.
