DARAH merupakan komponen penting dalam organisma hidup untuk melengkapkan fungsi sistem badan. Darah dalam badan manusia secara asasnya berfungsi untuk mengangkut oksigen, zat dan bahan kumuh ke seluruh tubuh.
Warna merah pada pula melambangkan kandungan bahan-bahan seperti hemoglobin, protein, albumin dan bahan pembekuan darah.
Selain itu, terdapat juga sel darah putih yang bertindak sebagai sistem imunisasi untuk memusnahkan agen jangkitan.
Peredaran lengkap sistem darah manusia akan melibatkan anggota tubuh seperti jantung, paru-paru dan salur darah. Berbeza dengan darah pada serangga, ia tidak terlibat secara langsung dalam operasi pengedaran oksigen kerana gas tersebut akan meresap ke dalam sistem badan melalui itu.
Ia hanya berfungsi untuk mengangkut zat-zat dan menyingkirkan bahan kumuh.

third-grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the 4th Grade!'
The Teacher has had enough. She takes the Boy to the principal's office. While the boy waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the
situation was. The principal told the lady that he would give the boy a test and if he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the first-grade and behave.She agreed.
The Boy was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agrees to take the test.
Principal: 'What is 3 x 3?' Boy.: '9'.
Principal: 'What is 6 x 6?' Boy.: '36'.
And so it went with every question the principal thought a 4th grader should know. The principal looks at the teacher and tells her, 'I think Boy can go to the 4th grade.'
The teacher then says to the principal, 'I have some of my own questions.Can I ask him ?' The principal and Boy both agreed.
