Yes, goldfish do have red blood. Like most vertebrates, their blood contains hemoglobin, which is a protein that binds to oxygen and gives blood its red color. The presence of hemoglobin allows goldfish to efficiently transport oxygen throughout their bodies, which is essential for their survival in aquatic environments.

How many red blood cells can pass side by side through the capillaries of a goldfish's tail?

In a goldfish's tail, capillaries are quite narrow, typically around 5 to 10 micrometers in diameter. Given that a red blood cell is approximately 6 to 8 micrometers wide, usually only a single red blood cell can pass through a capillary at a time. Therefore, side by side, it's unlikely that more than one red blood cell can traverse the capillaries simultaneously.

Does the blood move more rapidly in arteries or capillaries in a goldfish?
