The correct response is: Neurons contain DNA, but red blood cells do not.
Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are unique in that they lose their nucleus and most organelles during maturation, which means they do not contain DNA. In contrast, neurons retain their nucleus and contain DNA, which is essential for their functioning and the synthesis of proteins.
