bone marrow contains stem cells. stem cells can develop into red blood cells (carry oxygen), white blood cells (provide immunity), and platelets (aid in clotting)

if the bone marrow is destroyed or does not function properly leukemia (cancer causing abnormal white blood cells) or aplastic anemia (bone marrow doesnt make red blood cells) could develop.
