blood is liquid and solids, plasma is the liquid and platelets/white and red blood cells are the solids.

Arterial blood is red because the iron molecules in the hemoglobin react with the oxygen they carry.

Venal blood has a slightly blueish/purplish hue because it contains less oxygen after it has been delivered throughout the body.

Blood is red whether inside the body or outside, as it reacts with the oxygen upon contact, and inside the body it moves oxygen anyway.
ssshhh, you're making me look bad.
