What else can I help you with?
A mature red blood cell cannot reproduce because it lacks?
A mature red blood cell cannot reproduce because it lacks a nucleus or other organelles essential for cell division. This specialization allows red blood cells to efficiently transport oxygen throughout the body.
What blood cell is able to reproduce in the circulatory system?
White blood cells can reproduce in the bloodstream, because they have a nucleus, unlike the red blood cells, which lack a nucleus, and are produced in their millions by the bone marrow.
Which cell type lacks a nucleus what functions would this cell be unable to carry out?
The mature red blood cell lacks a nucleus, and so is unable to reproduce.
Is a mature red blood cell still considered a cell?
Yes. Even though it looses its nucleus and cannot reproduce or repair itself, it is still considered a cell.
How does the red blood cell shape help them perform their function?
The concave disc shape of red blood cells maximizes the surface area of the cell, allowing for rapid movement of oxygen or carbon dioxide to and from the hemoglobin within the cell. The cell has no nucleus, and few organelles, as it does not reproduce.
What does a white blood cell have that a red blood cell doesn't?
The white blood cell has nucleus that red blood cell does not
When is a red blood cell red?
a red blood cell is red when it reaches oxegen.
How is a cell differs from a red blood cell?
red blood cells are a type of cell
What is a host red blood cell?
its is the red blood cell on our body.
How does blood enter a red blood cell?
Blood contains red blood cells. Red blood cells don't contain blood. Blood does not enter the red blood cell.
Red blood cells can reproduce themselves?
All cells are born with a nucleus, but not the red blood cell. Without the large structure in the cell, it can carry more oxygen. But without a nucleus, it cannot reproduce and will die eventually. A red blood cell's life span is about 3-4 months. After that, it will be sent to the liver to be destroyed.When red blood cells are destroyed they release heme, a prosthetic group, that consists of iron. Iron is used to reproduce red blood cells in bone marrow. Red blood cells usually are reproduced in bone marrow.
What cells do not have a nucleus?
The only cell that I am aware of that does not contain a nucleus is the red blood cell. This cell rely's on specialized cells in the bone marrow in order to reproduce due to the fact that is is a brainless organism.
