Red blood cells (otherwise known as erythrocytes). They contain no DNA or organelles. They lose them whilst maturing so as to be able to pack more haemoglobin into the cell and therefore be more efficient oxygen carriers.

The lysis solution breaks open the cells and releases the DNA, allowing it to be extracted for further analysis.


Is there DNA in plant or animal cells?

Yes they will look alike because of the cell's small structural and functional unit of an organism. Typically microscopic and consisting of cytoplasm; because all cells are a part of life so the only difference would be the color.


What is the source of DNA in blood?

DNA in blood comes from white blood cells, which contain the person's genetic information. When blood is collected for testing or analysis, the DNA can be extracted from these cells to study and identify specific genetic markers or sequences.
