Question
multiple choice question
which retain their organelles throughout their life?
leukocytes
erythrocytes
both erythrocytes and leukocytes
Brief Explanations
Erythrocytes (red blood cells) lose their organelles (like nucleus, mitochondria) during maturation to carry more hemoglobin. Leukocytes (white blood cells) are nucleated and retain their organelles throughout their life to perform functions like immunity, phagocytosis, etc. So leukocytes retain organelles, erythrocytes do not.
