Red blood cells have no nucleus while a typical animal cell does. This is essential for its function because it needs to hold the hemoglobin molecules that carry oxygen and carbon dioxide. The drawback to this is that it does not have the ability to reproduce. So the life span of most red blood cells is typically 120 days.
