A matured mammalian RBC lacks all organelles on account of following reasons.
- It simply allows the red blood cell to have more hemoglobin. The more hemoglobin you have, the more oxygen molecules you can carry. Therefore, it allows RBC to transfer more oxygen.
- Lack of nucleus in RBC also allows the cell to have an unique bi concave shape that helps with diffusion.

Mature red blood cells (RBCs) do not possess nucleus along with other cell organelles such as mitochondria, Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum in order to accommodate greater amount of haemoglobin in the cells.
