Does mammalian blood contain any DNA?
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.
What type of cells carry mutated DNA?
The type of cells that carry mutated DNA is the boold cells
How do the blood cells carry food?
blood cells do not carry food, blood cells carry oxygen.
What do red blood cell lack?
Unlike the other cells in your body red blood cells do not have DNA or a nucleus. They do contain hemoglobin, a protein which allows your red blood cells to carry oxygen and other gases.
Does bananas carry a DNA?
Yes, all eukaryotic cells carry DNA
If DNA is made in the nucleus of a cell where is the nucleus in our blood?
Assuming the question is about red blood cells, the nucleus is no where. DNA is not necessary for red blood cells, their only function is to carry oxygen and carbon dioxide for and from cellular respiration, respectively. Since DNA is necessary mostly for cell division, red blood cells don't have it. Instead of dividing they are replaced on a regular basis. Red blood cells are instead manufactured in bone marrow. White blood cells contain their own set of DNA for division.
What type of cells carry mutations?
The type of cells that carry mutated DNA is the boold cells
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
What is the source of DNA in blood?
Every cell has DNA in it, even blood cells. DNA is an important part of cells, there can't be a cell without DNA.
How much DNA is in white blood cells?
There is as much DNA in white blood cells as any other cell. There is none in red blood cells.
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
What blood cells fight germs and what blood cells carry oxygen?
White blood cells fight germs and red blood cells carry oxygen.
