We see, we hear, we move, we talk, we eat, etc. To help us do these different things, we have many different kinds of cells. So, our cells divide, grow, and change to have different shapes and sizes so that they can do special jobs.

What is unique about nerve cells?
Nerve cells can send and receive messages. Thus they can control movements and they sensory function. Some may be assigned to one or another.
How is it that the shape can adapted to carry messages around the body?
Nerve cells have many adaptations to their function. The basic function of a nerve cell is to deliver a message to the next nerve cell in order to send information across the body. It has long axon that deliver an action potentially a long way.
How is a cell's shape and size related to it's function?
A cell shape is how it look, what shape it's in. While as a cells function is what it does for the plant or animal. For example a cells function could be to make proteins necessary for the body.
What is the difference between root hair celll and nerve cell?
the shape and that nerve cells have nucleus
A population that grows until it reaches its carrying capacity usually has the shape of an?
s shape
What does the nerve tissues do?
To shape and function.

What is the general shape of a nerve cell How does this shape differ Grimm the shape of a sperm or a skin?
The general shape of a nerve cell is long elongated and branched at an end. It come in different shape and sizes.
How does the shape of a nerve help them?
Each cell type has evolved a shape that is best related to its function. For example, the neuron in Figure below has long, thin extensions (axons and dendrites) that reach out to other nerve cells. The extensions help the neuron pass chemical and electrical messages quickly through the body.
How is the shape of the cells suited to the function?
A nerve cells long extensions reach out in various directions to enable them to receive and transmit impulses. And dead Skin Cells flat shape enables them to cover the surface of the body well.
How is the shape of the meristematic cell suited to its function?
A nerve cells long extensions reach out in various directions to enable them to receive and transmit impulses. And dead Skin Cells flat shape enables them to cover the surface of the body well.
What is the shape of a population that grows until it reaches its carrying capacity?
"S" shape
What is the difference between root hair celll and nerve cell?
the shape and that nerve cells have nucleus
What does the auditory nerve does?
Their main function is to connect the central nervous system to the limbs and organs. It essentially serves as a communication relay going back and forth between the brain and the extremities.
