Yes, rat blood cells contain a nucleus, but this is primarily true for their white blood cells (leukocytes). In contrast, rat red blood cells (erythrocytes) are anucleate, meaning they do not have a nucleus, similar to those of many other mammals. This adaptation allows for more space to carry hemoglobin and thus increases the efficiency of oxygen transport in the bloodstream.
