What is The difference between leaf cells and red blood cells?
The difference between a red blood cell and a leaf is that a leaf contains chlorophyll to make it green instead of haemoglobin that makes a red blood cell red. A leaf has many chloroplasts when a red blood cell does not but a red blood cell has a dimple. Both have a cell membrane but only a leaf has a cell wall. Hope this helps you.
What type of cell is this it is round like a donut with the hole partly filled?
I think you're referring to a red blood cell, which is circular with that distinctive "dimple" or "crater" like hole in the middle - the purpose of the dimple is to increase surface area for gas exchange, as the role of the red blood cell in the body is to transport oxygen from the lungs to the working muscles of the body and take carbondioxide away from the muscles and back towards the lungs.
Why do red blood cells have dimples?
There is a dimple to allow maximum surface area on a cell so the cell can circulate oxygen more quickly by absorbing bigger amounts of oxygen within the same amounts of time!Without the dimples on a red blood cell you would get tired very quickly and the human race may not have even survived to this point.
