Blood is  red because it is made up of cells that are red, which are called red  blood cells.  But, to understand why these cells are red you have to  study them on a molecular level.  Within the red blood cells there is a  protein called hemoglobin.  Each hemoglobin protein is made up subunits  called hemes, which are what give blood its red color.  More  specifically, the hemes can bind iron molecules, and these iron  molecules bind oxygen.  The blood cells are red because of the  interaction between iron and oxygen.  (Even more specifically, it looks  red because of how the chemical bonds between the iron and the oxygen  reflect light.)  And it's very important for blood to be able to carry  oxygen because when blood flows through the lungs, the blood picks up  oxygen, and the blood carries this oxygen to the rest of the body until  the oxygen is all used up -- the blood then returns to the lungs to get  more oxygen.

The color of blood is red this is because of the constituents of the blood.

Explanation:

  • The color of blood is red is because of the red blood cells.
  • The red blood cells consists of hemoglobin molecules. The hemoglobin molecules consists of iron molecules or heme group or the protein sub-units.
  • The heme group in the blood reacts with the oxygen and results in red color of the blood.
  • Hemoglobin transports oxygen to all the organs, tissues and cells of the body.
