They may contain different alleles for some of the genes 6 of 22 Meoisis Type of nuclear divison that results in the formation of cells containing half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell 7 of 22 Differentiation Process by which stem cells become specialisd into different types of cell 8 of 22 Epithelial Cell Cells that constitute lining tissue 9 of 22 Erythrocyte Red blood cell 10 of 22 Neutrophil Type of white blood cell that is phagocytic 11 of 22 Stem Cell Unspecialised cell able to express all of its genes and divide by mitosis 12 of 22 Guard Cells In leaf epidermis, cells that surround stomata 13 of 22 Palisade Cells Closely-packed photosynthetic cells within leaves 14 of 22 Root-Hair Cells Epidermal cells of young roots with long hair-like projections 15 of 22 Tissue Group of cells that work together to perform a specific function/ set of functions 16 of 22 Meristem Area of unspecialised cells within a plant that can divide and differentiate into other cell types 17 of 22 Organ Collection of tissues working together to perform a function/ related functions 18 of 22 Phloem Tissue that carries products of photosynthesis, in solution, within plants 19 of 22 Xylem Tissues that carries water and mineral ions from the roots to all parts of plant 20 of 22 Organ System A number of organs working together to carry out an overall life function 21 of 22 Stem Cell Unspecialised cell able to express all of its genes and divide by mitosis 22 of 22
