- Cell Specialisation
- Sperm Cell
- flagellum for swimming
- many mitochondria
- an acrosme containing enzymes to digest way into female gamete
- guard cell
- unevenly thickened walls so cells bend when turgid
- combinations of cells each contribute their specific adaptations to the function of the organ
- in multi-cellular organisms, specific groups of cells are specialized for a particular role. This increased efficiency helps the organism to have better survival qualities in the environment
- system
- a range of tissues and organs
- organ
- a collection of tissues which combine their properties for a specific function
- tissue
- a collection of similar cells, from the same source, all working together towards a particular function
- red blood cell
- contains haemoglobin
- no nucleus, high SA
- white blood cells
- can surround foreign cells and debris
- produces enzymes to digest foreign materials
- epithelial cell
- allows exchange of chemicals
- very thin
- plant palisade cell
- contains chloroplasts
- chloroplasts can move to reach light
- contains chlorophyll to absorb light
- sap vacuole contains important chemicals
- Sperm Cell
- Root Hair Cell
- aim to increase surface area
