Red blood cell, an Uncommon card
Red blood cells, referred to as erythrocytes in academia and medical publishing, also known as red cells, erythroid cells, and rarely haematids, are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen to the body tissues, via blood flow through the circulatory system.

The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Erythrocytes take up oxygen in the lungs, or in fish the gills, and release it into tissues while squeezing through the body's capillaries.
- The cytoplasm of a red blood cell is rich in hemoglobin, an iron-containing biomolecule that can bind oxygen.
- It is responsible for the red color of the cells and the blood.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Red blood cell article was read about 180,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 80 and blocks with 84: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
