It makes it easier for red blood cells to be transported through narrow capillaries, where some are so narrow that only one red blood cell flex to pass at a time. Added to that there's more space to transport more haemoglobin and oxygen or carbon dioxide.

Why are Erythrocytes unable to reproduce by cell division?
because they lack nucleus.
Are mature erythrocytes characterized by a multilobed nucleus?
No, mature human erythrocytes have no nucleus.
Do reptiles have a nucleus in their erythrocytes?
They do. Mammals are the only vertebrates without a nucleus in their erythrocytes.
Do DNA have all cells?
No. Some cells do not in fact have DNA, probably because of the lack of a nucleus. For example, mature red blood cells (erythrocytes) do not contain a nucleus or DNA.
When you examined the blood cells slide what parts are observed?
Most cells you see will be red blood cells (erythrocytes) and they lack a nucleus in their structure.
What exist as small biconcave blood cells that lack a nucleus when they are mature and carry oxygen throughout the body?
Red blood cells or erythrocytes are small biconcave blood cells that lack a nucleus when they are mature and carry oxygen throughout the body. They lack the nucleus and most organelles in order to maximize room for hemoglobin. The cells are active for about 100â??120 days. New cells are made in the bone marrow.
What type of cells lack a nucleus?
This is a biology question, but the answer is Prokaryotic. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Red blood cells also lack a nucleus.
What examples are names of cells that does not have a nucleus?
Red blood cells, or erythrocytes, do not have a nucleus.
What will some stem cells become if they mature into erythrocytes?
If stem cells mature into erythrocytes (red blood cells), they will become specialized for oxygen transport in the body. Erythrocytes are responsible for carrying oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the tissues and organs, as well as removing carbon dioxide waste. They have a unique biconcave shape and lack a nucleus to maximize their capacity for oxygen-carrying.
What is the difference between bird and mammal blood?
Thenoticeabledifference is that bird erythrocytes have organelles and a nuclei, which most mammals erythrocytes don't have.
Mature red blood cells?
erythrocytes
Unlike erythrocytes leukocytes have a nucleus and do not contain hemoglobin?
True
