  • Facilitating gas exchange
  • Creating the disc shape of the erythrocyte
  • Providing the cytoplasmic granularity
  • Transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide (correct)

    • Why does the disc shape of the erythrocyte facilitate gas exchange?

  • It provides more surface area
  • It allows for more cytoplasmic granularity
