What colour is blood?

[James!]

Just a quick question, what colour is blood before it comes out? I got told it was dark blue..

Nope, Red =]

Its more of a reddish purple, haemoglobin goes a deep red when it comes in contact with oxygen so before it does its pretty mucha dull red/purple.

it is blue in the veins when it comes in contact with oxygen it turns red thats like grade 9 chem u learn that :\

[[Chris]]

its usually blue when its got no oxygen (look at the veins on your wrist)

and when it comes in contact with air/ oxygen it turns red

[Starburst..x]

Its not true that your blue is blue before it comes into contact with oxygen, its always a red-ish colour

I am wrong. Oops.
