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 .

(b) Vaccination against the measles virus will not protect the child against the rubella virus. Why?
vekshin1
The measles virus and rubella virus are two separate viruses. They have different DNA and RNA structures, and the vaccination for the measles virus only "knows" how to attach itself to measles and destroy the virus. It doesn't know how to attach itself to the rubella virus to destroy it, as the vaccination is needed to inform it how to.

The advantage of vaccinating a large amount of the population is that it reduces the chance someone will catch sickness by a great amount, and can possibly eradicate the virus.
