What does a red blood cell have that enables it to perform its function optimally?
A red blood cell's job is to transport oxygen to lung tissue and get rid of waste such as carbon dioxide. It is adapted to its job as it has no nucleus and no liquids inside it, so there's more space for oxygen to be transported to lung tissue and for waste to be collected.

Yes, they do. The haemoglobin in biconcave red blood cells picks up the oxygen at the lungs, and drops it off at a respiring cell.

The red blood cells first gather oxygen from the lung before leaving it, and then enter the capillaries and give off oxygen and nutrients and then leave, back to the lungs to repeat this process. Hope this helped! Brynne
