Erythrocytes - Transport oxygen
Verified step by step guidance
1
Identify the function of each cell type mentioned in the problem.
Neurons are specialized cells responsible for transmitting electrical signals throughout the nervous system.
Osteoclasts are cells that break down bone tissue, not form it. Osteoblasts are the cells responsible for forming new bone tissue.
Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell that play a crucial role in the immune response by identifying and neutralizing pathogens.
Erythrocytes, also known as red blood cells, are primarily responsible for transporting oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body and returning carbon dioxide to the lungs for exhalation.
