Biology
1 answer:
taurus [48]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct answer is - they lack a nucleus, DNA, and organelles like the endoplasmic reticulum or mitochondria

Explanation:

Red blood cells are considered as the cells, carry oxygen with the help of hemoglobin protein present in it to the various parts of the body from the lungs and carry CO2 back to the lungs.

These cells are different from the normal cell as they do not participate in the protein synthesis due to the fact that they lack various cell organelle and cell components required. Nucleus and DNA are major components or organelle missing from these cells. In addition to these two, endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria also missing from RBCs.

Aleonysh [2.5K]
I believe the correct answer would be the third option. Our elements that comprise over 95% of the human body are <span>carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen. Carbon and hydrogen is the backbone of any hydrocarbon or organic compound. The cells in our body are made up organic compounds thus our body is mostly composed of carbon and hydrogen. Oxygen is also present in high percent in our body since it is important for the processes of the cells. Also, nitrogen should be present in our body in large amount since it is present in proteins which is found in our body's cells and tissues.</span>
