polychromatic normoblast

39
Q

color of polychromatic normoblast

why is the polychromatic normoblast pink

A

decreasing amounts of RNA.

41
Q

This is the last stage in which the cell is capable of undergoing mitosis,

A

polychromatic normoblast

42
Q

is a protein in the human body and it is more basic because of the amount of amino acids.

Q

reflects nearly complete hemoglobin production.

A

orthochromic normoblast

44
Q

color of orthochromic normoblast

A

salmon pink

44
