A. They live for only 120 days is correct. They are created in the bone marrow and destroyed in the spleen "red blood cells graveyard"

B. They have multiple Nuclei. Red blood cells don't have a nucleus but some can present structures called Jolly's bodies that are small pieces of the nucleus that they lost in the differentiation process

C. They only live for only about 20 days. No, red blood cells live for about 120 days

D. Once created in bone marrow, they circulate for our lifetime. Again, they have a limited lifetime

4) To bring amino acids to the ribosomes to help build a protein

5) A chain of amino acids held together by peptide bonds

6) Ribosomes

7) Because those are the bases that are complementary in DNA so they must be equal

8) It could lead to a mutation as it would cause the mRNA to code for a different amino acid and thus a different protein will be made

9) DNA is the blueprint for mRNA which will travel to the ribosomes and code for specific amino acids which will eventually build a protein
