MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Red blood cells, also known as erythrocytes, deliver oxygen to the tissues in your body. Oxygen turns into energy and your tissues release carbon dioxide. Your red blood cells also transport carbon dioxide to your lungs for you to exhale.

Detailed explanation-2: -The term Erythrocytes (from the Gk erythros=red and kytos=cell) is used for RBCs because of their characteristic red colour which also gave blood its colour due to their abundance.

Detailed explanation-3: -Erythrocytes (red blood cells or RBCs) are anucleate, biconcave cells, filled with hemoglobin, that transport oxygen and carbon dioxide between the lungs and tissues. They are produced in the red bone marrow by a process called erythropoiesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Red blood cells are also called erythrocytes. RBCs store the haemoglobin, which is a respiratory pigment that binds to oxygen or carbon dioxide molecules. This helps in the transportation of the oxygen to different tissues and organs of the human body.
