You find all sorts on t'internet.
Red corpuscles or erythrocites, a red blood cell; found in blood, lacks a nucleus, and contains the red pigment haemoglobin.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

A picture of human red blood cells (most likely) taken with a scanning electron microscope (SEM). They are mammalian because they don't have
nuclei; cells from reptiles and birds are nucleated. Their size, around 7 micron across is spot on for humans. Lastely, it is very easy to get human
samples ;-). They are taken with SEM because you can see a 3D picture, rather than a section if it was a transmission electron micrograph. And the
resolution is far better than you would be able to see with a light microscope. Also, the high voltage on the picture indicates that it is EM. What
you see is actually a heavy metal "ghost" that has been deposited on the cells in vacuum (sputter coating). So the red
"color" is actually "pseudo" converted from an intensity map. Cute.

So what you are trying to say then, is that you don't really know.

You gotta hedge in this day and age; there is far too much certainty about!
Do you think I got carried away in the previous discription; I am learning to type. I have just found the key for the semi colon
