What else can I help you with?
What organelle does a mature RBC not have that all other human cells have?
mitochondria and nucleus
What are the human cells without mitochondria?
In human, mature RBC (Red Blood Corpuscles) do not have mitochondria.
In what cells are mitochondria not found?
Mitochondria not found in RBC,Terminal keratinocytes.
Why RBC are not able to carry out aerobic respiration?
Because RBCs have no mitochondria, and mitochondria is necessary for aerobic respiration.
What cells have no mitochondria?
prokariyotes do not have.Mamalian RBC,sieve tube elements and some protists lack them
What happens when a red blood cell loses its nucleus?
When a red blood cell (RBC) loses its nucleus, it becomes a mature erythrocyte, which allows it to maximize its capacity to carry oxygen. The absence of a nucleus creates more space for hemoglobin, the protein responsible for oxygen transport. This adaptation enhances the RBC's flexibility and ability to navigate through narrow capillaries. The loss of the nucleus also means that mature RBCs cannot divide or repair themselves, leading to a finite lifespan of about 120 days.
What mature animal cell has no nucleus?
RBC (Red Blood Corpuscles) in Mammals except in Camel and lama.
What would happen if mitochondria are present in RBCs?
RBC's transport oxygen from lungs to other organs at all the RBC were to have mitochondria then they would use up all the oxygen which had to be carried to other organs coz mitochondria require oxygen for ATP synthesis. But the RBC don't have mitochondria instead they generate all the energy(ATP) by glycolysis using glucose.
If a mature RBC no longer contains a nucleus what are the two major cell functions they can no longer perform?
Making proteins and mitosis.
Name an organism where Golgi apparatus is absent?
Red blood cells do not have a Golgi apparatus. They lose their nucleus and other organelles during maturation, including the Golgi apparatus, to make space for more hemoglobin, which allows them to efficiently carry oxygen.
Is the Mitochondria in animals and plants?
Yes,they are in both.They are almost in every eukariyotic cell accept RBC,phloem seive tube cells etc
What organism has no mitochondria?
Parasitic protists in the Monocercomonoides genus have been found to lack mitochondria, relying instead on hydrogenosomes for energy production. These organisms have adapted to anaerobic environments where mitochondria are not necessary for survival.
