Is it True or False that all cells have the same structure but different functions?

False - cells can differ in structure in order to perform a specific function. For example, neurons (nerve cells) are electrically excitable. These have an axon (long section that conducts impulses, and ends which branch out - called dendrite. This is an example of a cell structure unique to a certain function.

What cells perform different functions?
Different cells are different in structure because of their different functions (e.g. plant cells have cell walls because they don't have bones). Also, cells have different functions because they work together with other cells to create a working system (e.g. the human body)
You are looking through a microscope at some cells each of the cells has a different structure What can you infer about these cells?
they have different functions
Do cells in your body all have the same structure and different functions?
no
Do the cells in many-celled organism often have different sizes and shapes?
With cells, the rule of thumb is, structure defines function. Different cells throughout the body perform different functions. To perform these functions, they need different shapes. They all have the same DNA, but different "blueprints" are activated depending on where they are in the body.
How cells in multi-celled organisms are similar in structure and function to single-celled organisms?
No, cells vary greatly in both internal and external structure. Although many cells share the same organelles and features, there are a huge variety of different internal structures.

What statement accurately compares cells in the human circulatory system to cells in the human nervas system?
3.cells in the nervous system are different in structure from cells in the circulatory system and they carry out different specialized functions

Structure inside eukaryotic cells that have different functions within the cell are known as what?
Organelle
How is the structure related to it's function?
They just are because different cells need different sized parts for different functions
Why nucleus is not in the same place within different types of cells?
every cell is different, different size different functions different placements in the structure
Cells have a support structure within the cytoplasm called the cytoplasm true or false?
true or false? cells have support structure within the cytoplasm called the cytoskeleton
What is structure of cheek cells and its functions?
monkey donkey
The structure of specialized cells enables them to perform?
their functions
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.
