Red blood cells are considered cells, but they lack all organelles. Red blood cells cannot divide or replicate like other cells of the body. The blood's red color is due to the spectral properties of the hemic iron ion the hemoglobin. Each human red blood cell is packed with approximately 270 million hemoglobin biomolecules.
