absolutley nothing red blood cells contain no DNA
All groups of white blood cells have DNA. When a blood sample is procured for the isolation of DNA, the white blood cells are the target cells since they have nuclei containing DNA. Red blood cells on the other hand, contain neither nuclei nor DNA
DNA in blood comes from white blood cells, which contain the person's genetic information. When blood is collected for testing or analysis, the DNA can be extracted from these cells to study and identify specific genetic markers or sequences.
They do. Mammals are the only vertebrates without a nucleus in their erythrocytes.
No. Not all cells have a nucleus, which contains nuclear DNA; but all cells have mitochondria, which have their own DNA, called mitochondrial DNA, or mDNA. In humans, the cells that lack a nucleus and therefore nuclear DNA, are mature red blood cells, but they do have mitochondria and mitochondrial DNA.
You have about 25 trillions of RBC in your blood. They do not have nucleus in them and so no DNA. WBC has a nucleus and contains the DNA.

There is as much DNA in white blood cells as any other cell. There is none in red blood cells.

The only DNA in blood would be the DNA contained in white blood cells as red blood cells have no nucleus and therefore no DNA.Read more: http://wiki.answers.com/How_do_you_extract_DNA_from_blood#ixzz1TMsImbnt
This would be normal. All body cells have the same DNA, including blood cells, at least at some point during their life cycles. Mature red blood cells do not contain DNA because they do not have cell nuclei. But when red blood cells are first formed, they do have a nucleus with DNA identical to the rest of the body cells.
White blood cells carry genetic information. In mammals mature red blood cells do not have DNA because they do not have nuclei. They expel them during the maturation process. However, in birds and reptiles they have nucleated red blood cells. Thus reptile and bird red blood cells do contain DNA.
Not true. They both do. DNA is contained in all living cells.
No. Blood-typing is an older technology and far from conclusive since many people share the same blood types. DNA is at least as accurate as a fingerprint while blood typing only helps to narrow things down. Blood typing is more exclusionary in that if you have a different blood type, that proves innocence, but having the same does not prove guilt.
They do. Mammals are the only vertebrates without a nucleus in their erythrocytes.
red blood cells
White blood cells (unlike red blood cells) have nuclei containing genetic material. Since DNA is present within the white blood cells and since blood is easy to obtain from the body, scientists use white blood cells to extract DNA
dna isn't found in red blood cells
