Question

What is the description of frog blood smear?

Answer 1

Frog Blood Cells. Unlike typical mammalian red blood cells, those from amphibians, such as frogs, contain a DNA-bearing nucleus that is visible in the center of the cell.

Answer 2

Answer:

1. In frog, blood curpuscles are of three types: erythrocytes, leucocytes and thrombocytes.
2. Erythrocytes, or RBCs, are large, oval bioconvex and nucleated. They are numerous and contain haemoglobin which is meant for the transportation of oxygen.
3. Leucocytes, WBCs, are rounded or irregular, colourless and nucleated cells. They contain granular or agranular cytoplasm.
4. Thrombocytes are small discoidal cells with clear cytoplasm and an oval or round nucleus.
