The red blood cell is just about the easiest cell to study , it has haemoglobin (lots of it) it has a nucleus when it forms from bone marrow , but when it matures it loses the nucleus and is replaced by ..... can u guess ? MORE HAEMOGLOBIN , as well as some other chemicals / components , it has a cell membrane otherwise known as : lipid bilayer ( a thin membrane made of molecules ) as well as a few other minor to average components.

∙ 14y agoThey are shaped like a biconcave disc and have a diameter of 7-8 micrometers. Anucleated mature cells, cytoplasm is filled with hemoglobin. There are many surface antigens on the surface of the erythrocytes (RBC) such as the ABO, Rh, and MN blood typing groups.
The structure of the red blood cell allows them to be more flexible so that they can get through tight passages.

It has a biconcave shape to maximise the surface area of the cell membrane for oxygen to diffuse across.

What special substance is found in red blood cells and what does it do?
Red blood cells carrie oxegen to the different parts of your body allowing you to function and live.
Why doesn't different cells have different DNA?
Different cells have different parts, depending on their job in the body. That's why red blood cells differ from white blood cells; a red blood cell has mitochondria and vacuoles. The white one does not.
What cell transports oxygen?
red blood cells
Why do you have red blood cells?
The purpose of red blood cells is to transport oxygen from your lungs to the other parts of your body, and to take the carbon dioxide created by your body into your lungs, so that they can be expelled.
What two chemicals do red blood cells transport in human bodies?
Red blood cells carry oxygen to the parts of the body that need it, and return carbon dioxide to the lungs to be expelled.
What are the 4 parts that make up your blood?
White blood cells Red blood cells Blood plasma Platelets
What are the parts of the blood?
The parts of the blood are the formed elements (solid parts) and the plasma (the liquid in which the solid parts are suspended). The formed elements include red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
What are the cellular parts of the blood?
Red blood cells,white blood cells and plasma
Name 3 parts of the blood?
red blood cells, white blood cells and the plasma
Separation of blood into its parts?
The blood contains Red blood cells, White blood cells and Platlets.
Why blood called cell?
Blood cells are cells. They are found in your circulatory system. Red blood cells are red and carry oxygen to your body parts. White blood cells fight infection and disease.
The four parts of the blood?
I think you are looking for white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets, and plasma
What are the four part of blood?
The four main parts of the blood are red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. Thanks I hope i helped!
What is in the liquid and solid portion of the blood?
The solid portion of the blood is mainly made up of red blood cells. There are white blood cells and platelets too.
What are the main parts of red blood cells?
Haemoglobin which "attracts" oxygen into the cells
What are the 4 main parts that make up your blood?
They are the red blood cells,white blood cells,platelets and plasma
What blood cells are found in a drop of blood.?
In a normal drop of blood you will find red blood cells, white blood cells: Neutrophils, lymphocytes, eosinophils, basophils and platelets (not cells, but parts of megakaryocytes - cells formed in the bone marrow).
