Why are red blood cells unable to replace damaged proteins
Rainbow [258]

The sole reason why red blood cells are unable to replace damaged proteins is that red blood cells lack DNA and cell organelles such as the nucleus, ribosomes, and mitochondria which are crucial for protein synthesis, assembly, and repair. In other words, they lack both the information and the machinery for making or repair of proteins.

Due to lack of DNA and cell organelles, red blood cells cannot be able to satisfy the central dogma which summarizes synthesis of proteins as DNA → RNA → proteins.

DNA has the genetic information on how proteins should be made, RNA is responsible for transferring the information from DNA in the cell nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm,  then translating or decoding this information, which results in the making of protein.

How does the basic structure of a steroid differ from other macromolecules such as carbohydrates?
oksian1 [2.3K]
The basic structure of a steroid differ from other macromolecules such as carbohydrates by having a four ring structure whereas a carbohydrate do not have. A steroid is a group of organic substances which has four rings that are arranged in a certain configuration. Examples are testosterone, estradiol and lipid cholesterol. It will always have seventeen carbon atoms in its structure. Carbohydrates, on the other hand, are a group of organic substances that consist carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms typically in a 2:1 ratio of the hydrogen and oxygen atoms. So, it would have an empirical formula of Cx(H2O)y.
