The only cells which lack DNA are the mature <b>red blood cells</b> (erythrocytes). This is because they lack a nucleus, which is where the DNA is found in other cells. Red blood cells also lack mitochondria which themselves have DNA. Therefore they not only lack nuclei DNA, but mitochondrial DNA as well. <br /><br /> Red blood cells develop in your bone marrow from special cells called stem cells. These do have a nucleus, but as the red blood cell develops the nucleus is squeezed/taken out. This makes more room for the red pigment haemoglobin, which is needed to carry the Oxygen in the red cells. Haemoglobin also carry's Glucose needed for energy and also they take Carbon Dioxide away from the cells to be breathed out through the lungs

∙ 11y agoThe only cell in the human body that does not have a nucleus is the erythrocyte, or red blood cell. There are also cell fragments, including platelets, that do not have nuclear material as well.
Red blood cells do not contain DNA. They lose their nucleus, along with DNA, during their development in order to make more space for hemoglobin and efficiently transport oxygen in the body.

False. Eukaryotic cells generally contain more DNA than prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have their DNA enclosed within a nucleus, whereas prokaryotic cells have their DNA located in the cytoplasm.
Red blood cells do not contain a nucleus, which means they lack DNA. As a result, red blood cells are not useful for DNA typing. Instead, white blood cells, which do contain DNA, are typically used for DNA profiling and typing in forensic analysis.
All blood cells have DNA, which carries genetic information and is important for cell functions. White blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets all contain DNA, although red blood cells lose their nucleus during maturation and do not have a nucleus with DNA.
The Dna in prokaryotic Cells floats in the Cytoplasm as a single circular Chromosome. Yes, all Prokaryotes (bacteria and archea and others) and Eukaryotes (e.g Insect, Animal, and Plant Cells) contain Dna in the Form of Chromosomes; without Dna there will be no reproduction.
No, not all cells contain DNA. Red blood cells, for example, lose their nucleus and DNA as they mature to make space for more oxygen-carrying hemoglobin. Additionally, some viruses do not have their own DNA and rely on host cells to replicate.
Yes, plant cells contain DNA. They contain it because DNA is necessary to the cells so that they can carry the instructions to carry out life functions and reproduce.Nucleus and chloroplasts

Haploid cells like sperm cells,ova,bacteria
The two-rod structures that contain the cell's DNA is the chromosome.
red blood cells
All living cells contain both RNA and DNA. RNA is involved in gene expression and protein synthesis, while DNA stores genetic information. These molecules are essential for cellular function and replication.
yes without DNA there is no cell
Yes, but it is different from the DNA in the cells nucleus.
Almost all cells in the thymus contain DNA because DNA is present in the nucleus of all eukaryotic cells. Thymus is an organ where T cells mature, so the vast majority of cells in the thymus would contain DNA.
Both plant cells and animal cells contain genetic material in the form of DNA. This DNA carries instructions for the cell's functions and characteristics. The DNA is located in the nucleus of the cell in both plant and animal cells.
Bacterial cells, animal cells, and plant cells all have DNA. DNA contains information for the cell on how to perform tasks. In plant and animal cells, DNA is contained in a nucleus, unlike bacterial cells where DNA is contained in a nucleoid.Hope this helped
