Journeys: Blood. Stop 1

What's in blood

Different cells float in the blood. Sort them into teams!

Red cells are called red blood cells. They carry oxygen, and there are more of them in the blood than any other cell.

White cells are called leukocytes. They protect you from germs.

The little plates are called platelets. They patch up cuts.

Wrong team. Try another one.

Blood also has lots of water. It's called plasma, and it carries food.
