a: bone marrow ~
b: a garden

What:

"His doctor, David Margolis, tells his young patients that their bone marrow is like a garden. If it is healthy, it grows red flowers (red oxygen-carrying blood cells) white flowers (white infection-fighting cells) and platelets (critical for clotting). If Antonio's transplant works, Margolis says, it will give him "new seeds" for this garden."
