Blood cells are round, actually biconcave disc shape because that makes them very efficient for gas exchange because they have a large surface area.
Red blood cells are round in shape so as to allow for swift and efficient movement throughout the bloodstream. Any other shape would be apt to cause clotting.

What color is frog blood?
oxidyzed (blue blood) and de-oxidyzed (red blood) blood is mixed
What are similarities between the human blood smear and the frog blood smear under microscope?
Numerous differences can be seen between frog blood and human blood. Perhaps the most obvious is the oval shape of the frog erythrocytes rather than the biconcave discs of human blood. Moreover, the frog erythrocytes have a nucleus (here stained blue) whilst human erythrocytes do not. There is less difference in size between the erythrocytes and leucocytes than in human blood. There are no platelets in frog blood.
What is the organ found within the mesentery that stores blood in a frog?
The spleen stores blood in the frog. It is an organ found within the mesentery. This is part of the frogs circulatory system.

What are the round cells that move in the blood capillary called?

What cells are included in the circulatory system?
Frog Red Blood Cells and Human Red Blood Cells
Do frog blood cells have vacuoles?
Yes
What is the function of the frog blood cell?
To carry oxygen to the frog's body cells.
Do the round shape of blood cells give then extra surface area?
The round shape of blood cells are round so they can fit through tiny places in your body. Red blood cells are in your body so are white blood cells. White blood cells fight diseases.
Which element in the blood is round and colourless?
White Blood Cells
What is the appearance of frog's red blood cells?
they are spherical in shape
Why do frog blood cells contain DNA while human blood cells don't?
Not true. They both do. DNA is contained in all living cells.
Differentiate human red blood cells to a frog red blood cell?
1) Frog's red blood cells contain a nucleus that carries all the genetic information needed to make new cells by replication. Human red blood cells contain no nuclei because they reproduce differently than frog. 2) We human have platelets in our blood but frogs do not have them.
Difference between frog from human red blood cell?
frog rbc is found in a frogs and human rbc is found in humans
Any information on frog blood?
