How do Bone cells and muscle cells differ in structure and function?

This helps keep the bones strong and functioning, because each type of cell takes care of part of the upkeep of the bones. The osteoblast breaks down old bone that is weak. The osteoclast builds new bone to replace the old bone. The osteocyte keeps the mature bone healthy and supplied with nutrients, as well as monitoring the bone around itself to ensure it is still healthy.

∙ 9y agoBone cells and muscle cells have different functions. Bones are made of connective tissue. Muscle tissue gives an organism the ability to move.

∙ 9y agoBlood cells and muscle cells make different enzymes because not every gene acts in every type of cell. They contain different specialized transcription factors.

How are retina cells and muscle cells able to function differently?
The have differentiated so that each only produces certain kinds of proteins.The types of proteins a cell produces determines its function. From structure comes function.
Why are cells shaped according to their functions?
all cells have a different function or most do. the thing is that when they perform a specific job they need a specific shape in order to do the job.
Do the muscle pull the structure or push them explain briefly?
Muscle cells can only contract, thus pull is their only function. Try it, its true. That's why most muscles come in pairs.
What concerning cells structure determines?
Function
What are the properties of cells that determine function of tissue?
muscle?
How do eukaryotic cells differ from each other?
Eukaryotic cells differ from each other due to their structure and function
Do the cells beneath the formative phase differ from each other?
due to their structure and function they are differ from each other
Are the cells the same and why?
The DNA of cells in the same organism will be the same if no mutations occur. The only diffferences from your hair cells to your muscle cells is the structure of the cell. The structure of a cell gives the cell it's function.
Why might bone cells be differ form muscle cells?
muscle cells change and can move
How are the structure and function of an organisms parts related?
The structure and function relate because what the structure is made of infuences what the organ's function is. An example is that the heart is made of strong muscle cells. Therefore, it is fit to do the job of pumping blood around the body.
How are retina cells and muscle cells able to function differently?
The have differentiated so that each only produces certain kinds of proteins.The types of proteins a cell produces determines its function. From structure comes function.
Is brain cardiac muscle?
No. The brain is made up of nervous tissue, which is composed of specialized cells called neurons. Muscle tissue is composed of myocytes, or "muscle cells", which have a different organization, structure and function than nervous tissue.
What is a group of cells with similar structure or function?
Is called tissue.
Why muscle cell called muscle fibre?
Muscle cells are called muscle fibers because of their long, slender shape that resembles a fiber. The structure of muscle cells allows them to contract and generate force, which is essential for muscle function. The term "fiber" is used to describe the long, cylindrical shape of these cells that run parallel to each other in muscle tissue.
Are all cells same and why?
Yes and no. They for the most part have the same basic organelles(organs for cells), but there are distinct differences. For example, a plant cell has a cell wall, an animal cell does not. Most cells will have a nucleus, mitochindria, and ribosomes, but will differ in appearance. What decides that is the DNA or RNA.
Why are cells shaped according to their functions?
all cells have a different function or most do. the thing is that when they perform a specific job they need a specific shape in order to do the job.
What is the main function of muscle cells?
involuntary muscle movements
