oh goody! my cue! :D (feel free to pitch in, a6r!)
When u first hit it, the blood cells break open and let out the material inside of them. When one of those chemicals (namely, heme) is metabolized/broken down, it goes through all those color changes. The final product is bilirubin which is yellow. Bilirubin is also the reason why you get pale and your eyes get yellow if you have hepatitis.
Now a medical question for you too:
Can you guess what else bilirubin gives its color to!??!?! ;)

BANANAS!
um....riiiiiiiiiiiiight! :D :D
i'm glad amongst your many examinations you hadst time to respond to a query.
heh. i love the way you get excited about stuff like that.
you and your bananas. =P now i feel pale.
so.. here's another question for you. what makes you angry? is it a release of a hormone? which? and why do you feel drained sometimes? like nothing in this world matters.. or are we getting psychological there?

'course.
All your emotions are either due to hormonal or neurotransmitter actions. There's a deeper realm that's not really explainable by science, akeed. But looking at it from a reductionalist point of view, yes, you can narrow down almost any emotion to a chemical excess or deficiency.
My first hunch on anger was adrenaline. But I looked it up and it's noradrenaline. Adrenaline is more linked to the emotion of fear...the "fight or flight" situation.
Stuff like dopamine and serotonin are linked to the "down" feeling associated with depression.
- RMC, M.D.-to-be :D (think what u may...i can't wait! :D)

Oh, I know it's not found in the dictionary. But it sure should be found in the encylcopedia, i think...
In any case, it should not be a Webster search. It should be googled.
Bits and pieces to help:
- Aristotle (384-322 BC) was one of the first proponents of the HOLISTIC model of healthcare, believing in the combination of the physical and spiritual elements of the human condition. Rene Descartes came along in the early 1600s and philosophically split the mind and body. Sometime after that the REDUCTIONIST movement sought to find simple explanations for the function of the human body.
- A reductionist theory reduces some class of phenomena to some (allegedly) simpler phenomena of another class.
Simply put, it's reducing everything to smaller, more tangible concepts.
(ok, fine, it's "reductionist"...not "reductionAList"...but the search should give you either)
