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
What else can I help you with?
Is it true or false that prokaryotic cells contain more DNA than eukaryotic cells?
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.
How valuable are red blood cells in DNA typing?
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.
Does water contain DNA?
No, water does not contain DNA. DNA is a molecule found in the cells of living organisms, not in water.
Which blood cell has 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
Do prokaryotic Cells contain 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.
Do plants cells contain DNA why or why not?
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

Does water contain DNA?
No, water does not contain DNA. DNA is a molecule found in the cells of living organisms, not in water.
What structures contain the cells DNA?
The two-rod structures that contain the cell's DNA is the chromosome.
Which cells have DNA as their genetic material?
Haploid cells like sperm cells,ova,bacteria
What of your body's cells contain DNA?
red blood cells
What types of cells contain RNA and DNA?
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.
Does miochondria contain DNA?
Yes, but it is different from the DNA in the cells nucleus.
Do cells ever have to contain DNA?
yes without DNA there is no cell
What percentage of thymus cells contain DNA?
All cells contain DNA (even cells with no nuclei have mithcondria which encode their own genome). thymus cells have an especially high amount of DNA since they serve as a place where T cells mature.
Does the plant cell or the animal cell contain genetic material?
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.
