The red blood cell's biconcave shape increases its surface area for diffusion. The lack of a nucleus makes this shape possible.
Shape and size of red blood cell when put in slty solution?
A red blood cell when placed in salty solution shrinks and becomes wrinkled.

Is there something that determines the shape of a red blood cell?
A red blood cell contains a red pigment known as HAEMOGLOBIN.We know that haemoglobin is a protein.Its structure is quertenary which means its made up of coiled polypeptides.2 beta and 2 alpho.This therefore means the shape of a red blood cell is determined by quertenary structure of its red pigment.
What shape are blood cells?
Blood cells are typically disc-shaped with a concave center, resembling a biconcave disc. Red blood cells have this shape to increase their surface area for oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange. White blood cells are larger and varied in shape, allowing them to engulf foreign particles and pathogens.
What is the medical term meaning genetic disorder that causes red blood cells to assume an unusual shape and produce abnormal hemoglobin proteins?
