When red blood cells are destroyed they release heme, a prosthetic group, that consists of iron. Iron is used to reproduce red blood cells in bone marrow. Red blood cells usually are reproduced in bone marrow.

∙ 15y agoIn the bone marrow is where this process happens. They are the "stem cells" of the blood. It can become a thrombocyte (platelet), a leukocyte (white blood cell), or erythrocyte (red blood cells). Red blood cells last about 120 days, platelets live about 6 days, and white blood cells less than a day.

Does the destruction of red blood cells release heme to reproduce in bone marrow?
Red blood cells can not reproduce because they do not have a nucleus like all other cells. Red blood cells last at least 3-4 months. When they are destroyed, heme (consisting of iron) is released; the iron is used to reproduce red blood cells.
What types of cells if damaged or injured does not reproduce itself and it lost forever?
red blood cells
Do red blood cells have centriole in?
My guess is no. Because a red blood cells do not have a nucleus in it and does not reproduce, centriole would have no purpose in it, because it does not need to be part of making spindles.
What cant red blood cells do?
Red blood cells do not fight off infection like white cells do. Since every cell in the human body is specialized to perform a specific function, red blood cells are unique in what they do. Red blood cells also cannot reproduce or make new proteins, since they lose their nucleus when they mature.
Why would a person with leukemia have low numbers of red blood cells normal white blood cells and platelets in the blood?
When people have Leukimia Their blood counts are low because their cells of blood cant reproduce quickly
Why is the bone marrow is important?
because it produces red blood cells since red blood cells cant reproduce themselves because they lack a nucleus
How does a red blood cell reproduce?
Red blood cells are produced by stem cells in bone marrow.

How does blood multyiply?
Mature red blood cells do not reproduce. Blood is produced in red bone marrow from precursor cells.
Do red blood cells reproduce in the lungs?
yes
How do red blood cells reproduce?
with help of liver
What types of cells if damaged or injured does not reproduce itself and it lost forever?
red blood cells
Why is the red marrow bone important?
Red marrow produces red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs) and cell fragments called platelets. RBCs carry oxygen through out the body, WBCs fight off infections by bacteria and viruses, other "invaders" and platelets are necessary for blood clotting.
How many red blood celll die and reproduce everyday?
Three million red blood cells die and are reproduced every second. The dead red blood cells get degraded by the liver
What blood cell is able to reproduce in the circulatory system?
White blood cells can reproduce in the bloodstream, because they have a nucleus, unlike the red blood cells, which lack a nucleus, and are produced in their millions by the bone marrow.
Do red blood cells have centriole in?
My guess is no. Because a red blood cells do not have a nucleus in it and does not reproduce, centriole would have no purpose in it, because it does not need to be part of making spindles.
Why can't RBC's reproduce?
Red blood cells, when mature, have no nucleus and can not reproduce.
