    • Specialised
      • Sperm
        • Head containing genetic info & enzyme to penetrate egg
        • Packed with mitochondria for energy
        • Tail to swim/move
      • Red blood cells
        • Thin membrane - oxygen diffuse easy
        • Shape increase surface area so more oxygen absorbed
        • No nucleus - full of haemoglobin
      • Nerve cells
        • fatty sheath - insulator
        • many short extensions
