Answer 1

Answer:

The red blood cells without nuclei, called reticulocytes, subsequently lose all other cellular organelles such as their mitochondria, Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum.

Explanation:

Unlike red and white blood cells, platelets are not actually cells but rather small fragments of cells.

When your skin is injured or broken, your platelets clump together and form clots to stop the bleeding. When you don't have enough platelets in your blood supply, your body can't form clots. A low platelet count is called thrombocytopenia. This condition can range from mild to severe, depending on its underlying cause.
