ANSWER:-
The lack of nucleus and mitochondria means that red blood cells must get their energy differently using a process called glycolysis to produce ATP (anaerobic respiration) followed by lactic acid production. Due to the absence of mitochondria RBCs remain flexible and can squeeze through small blood capillaries.
