Blood cells are _____ in shape because they lack a nucleus.
sesenic [268]


Red blood cells are disc shaped. It is thought one factor that allows them to have this shape is because they do not have a nucleus. This tends to increase amount of space inside the cell for hemoglobin.

They have a flexible disc shape which helps increase the surface- to- area volume ratio  which enables oxygen and carbon dioxide to diffuse across the red blood cell's plasma membrane more readily.

Their disc shape also enables them to squeeze through tiny capillaries that are half their size .

Que signifie ADN et comment on le prouve?
irakobra [83]

Answer:

<h3>Qu'est-ce que l'ADN ?</h3>

L'ADN (acide désoxyribonucléique) est un type d'acide nucléique qui se distingue par le stockage de l'information génétique de la grande majorité des êtres vivants. Cette molécule est formée de nucléotides et a généralement la forme d'une double hélice.

Il est nécessaire de prélever des échantillons de certains fluides corporels qui peuvent être du sang, de la salive, des ongles, des cheveux ou du sperme. À l'aide de techniques de laboratoire sophistiquées, l'ADN des échantillons est isolé, puis une cartographie est effectuée, ce qui est fait par des équipements appelés "Séquenceurs d'ADN".

Pour le prouver, normalement le rapport d'un examen ADN apporte quels gènes et chromosomes ont été étudiés et l'analyse du généticien à leur sujet. Les résultats sont présentés dans des rapports simples et clairs. Dans les examens de paternité, le résultat est toujours comparatif.

J'espère t'avoir aidé, bonnes études !
