Erythrocytes or red blood cells are formed in the bone marrow from precursor cells called erythroblasts which themselves are formed from pleuripotential stem cells - the mother of all blood cells. Along the way, erythroblasts take various forms/ stages until they differentiate into mature erythrocytes.
