    (also called red blood cells) are biconcave disks‚ containing haemoglobin that transports oxygen. They transport the oxygen to cells all over the body. The surface area to volume ratio is very large on the erythrocytes so oxygen can diffuse very quickly into the cell. They lack organelles meaning that there is more room for haemoglobin. They are small and have a flexible membrane which allows them to fit through tiny capillaries and transport oxygen extremely close to cells. Leucocytes (also called

    The cell is the fundamental structural unit of all living organisms. Some cells are complete organisms‚ such as the unicellular bacteria and protozoa; others‚ such as nerve‚ liver‚ and muscle cells‚ are specialized components of multi-cellular organisms. Cells range in size from the smallest bacteria-like mycoplasmas‚ which are 0.1 micrometer in diameter‚ to the egg yolks of ostriches‚ which are about 8 cm (about 3 in) in diameter.
