Explanation:

Its stomach was filled eith 30 plastic bags, and many smaller pieces of plastic. ... The whale was emaciated, and scientists believe that the plastic had gathered in such an amount in its stomach that it had created a plug, stopping the digestive process.

The cause of death appears to be starvation, though that's under investigation. Many of the stranded whales in 2019 have been malnourished, said David Weller, a research wildlife biologist with NOAA's Southwest Fisheries Science Center in La Jolla, California.

Explain why red blood cells are unable to replace damaged proteins
Harman [31]


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 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 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.
