Answer:

c) Both are functions of blood, that is, to carry oxygen to the cells and also remove wastes from the body.

Step-by-step explanation:

Blood is a form of connective tissue and is made up of red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and blood plasma. The red blood cells contains a metallo-protein structure known as hemoglobin. This hemoglobin binds to the oxygen and carry them to the cells and the tissues for proper functioning of them. The waste products like carbon dioxide is carried by the blood from the body tissues to expel it out from the body.
