How anucleated rbcs survive?

Young nucleated RBCs loses their cell organelles in order to furnish more space for haemoglobin so that they can carry more oxygen. the energy carrier (ATP) required for the survival of mature rbcs is produced by lactic acid fermentation. But they cannot produce energy for long period so they die out in less no. of days i,e. 120 days.

They do not replicate so they do not require DNAs and they circulate in the body with the blood stream so they donot require nucleus too.its like a paper boat floating in the water stream do not require any effort but a ship demands some efoort for its continuation in floating.

Red blood cells are anucleated because?

Red blood cells (RBCs) are anucleated to maximize their capacity for oxygen transport. By losing their nucleus during maturation, they gain more space to contain hemoglobin, the protein responsible for oxygen binding. This adaptation allows for increased flexibility and surface area, facilitating the efficient passage of RBCs through narrow capillaries and enhancing overall oxygen delivery to tissues.

Are camel red blood cells nucleated?

The red blood cells of all mammals, without exception, are anucleated (lacking a nucleus). Mammal RBCs are nucleated only during embryonic stages. The red blood cells of camels are oval instead of round so they can withstand the effects of water deprivation better.

Where do most RBCs die?

Most red blood cells (RBCs) die in the spleen and liver, where they are filtered out by macrophages. The lifespan of RBCs is about 120 days, after which they lose their flexibility and ability to navigate through small blood vessels. These organs play a crucial role in recycling the iron and other components from the degraded RBCs.


What happens if rbc's and saline solutions are mixed?

If red blood cells (RBCs) are mixed with a saline solution, the RBCs may undergo hemolysis, where they rupture and release their contents into the solution. This can lead to changes in the osmotic balance and potentially cause damage to the RBCs. It is important to handle RBCs carefully to prevent hemolysis and maintain their function.
