WHY do scorpions have blue blood?
The fact is that the blood of scorpions does not contain hemoglobin, but hemocyanin, its analog. If hemoglobin is an iron-containing substance, then hemocyanin consists of copper.
When in contact with air, this element turns blue and, giving oxygen to tissues, loses its color.
