What organelles are present in red blood cells?
Red blood cells are considered cells, but they lack all organelles. Red blood cells cannot divide or replicate like other cells of the body.
Can a mature red blood cell divide?
No, it cannot divide since mature red blood cells have no nucleus. there are no chromosomes to replicate.
Do you see a nucleus in the red blood cells?
No - red blood cells do not contain a nucleus. This means that they cannot replicate, and must therefore be continuosly manufactured in the bone marrow.
Why can't red blood cells reproduce?
They have no Nucleolus so Therefor there's no DNA to Replicate.
What do red blood cells carry besides carbon dioxide?
the red blood cells carry carbon dioxide and oxygen that it gets from the lungs when you breath.the blood gets its color from when the red blood cells pick up the oxygen. oh and by the way red blood cells are also called erthrocytes
How does the cell doctrine contradict with a mature red blood cell?
Red blood cells are considered cells, but they lack all organelles. Red blood cells cannot divide or replicate like other cells of the body. The blood's red color is due to the spectral properties of the hemic iron ion the hemoglobin. Each human red blood cell is packed with approximately 270 million hemoglobin biomolecules.
What process occurs when oxygen molecules move into a cell?
For starters, blood IS cells. Blood is made up of plasma and white & red blood cells. The oxygen gets transported straight to the red blood cells, and then gets used and coverted to CO2 which is transported out of the cell.
Is it true or false that Eukaryotic cells do not have a nucleus?
Yes, it is possible for a Eukaryotic cell to have no nucleus. An example of a cell without a nucleus is the mammalian red blood cell. However, Eukaryotic cells without a nucleus, like red blood cells, are unable to replicate. This is why red blood cells need to be continuously produced in the bone marrow.
Does red blood cells carry messages?
No, they carry blood and ONLY blood unless something gets in it!
What are the the cells that carry oxygen?
Red blood cells contain hemoglobin. These cells are also known as erythrocytes.
What blood cells contain haemoglobin?
Red blood cells because that is what carries oxygen throughout the body
Describe how oxygen gets from the air to the cells of the foetus?
Oxygen gets from the air to the cells of the fetus through the umbilical cord. The oxygen circulates in the mothers red blood cells.
