In what way could you compare your whole body to a single cell?
in a cell different cell organelles do different functions(e.g. mitochondria-respiration) in the same way our body has different organs or different organ systems to do different functions(heart-respiration;digestive system-complete digestion and excretion of food)
What are 3 functions of an exoskeleton?
The functions of an exoskeleton: 1)To protect the internal organs against attack, accidental damage and the elements. 2)To give structural support to the internal organs, muscles & sinues (in much the same way as an endoskeleton does). 3)To facilitate the movement of limbs & appendages.
Why is cell differentiation important?
lol im guess that your doing unit 1: fundimentals of science ! same as me, well if im right, the question you have been given is not very clear in what it is asking you to define. my take on the question is not that you have to go through every system in the body (brain, endocrine ect) which is what some people define as tissues BUT to explain the 4 main types of tissue in the body being; nervous, muscle, epithelial and connective tissue. so in each of those main tissues types you will find there to be different types of cells doing different functions in the tissue. Take connective tissue for example, you have loose connective tissue and dense connective tissue. you have to state that they have different proerties (loose having capibillity of holding water and dense not ect) and say why that's important to the functions and building of the body. don't be confused by the eukaryotes part that's just an other way of saying animal body. So if you go to the edexcel website and look at the speification you can see that this is onyl for the merit so its rather important that you get this right before you can move onto distintion. I know this has not spcifically answerd you questions but that's becasue you need about 10 pages to go into detail about the different tissues and that's you work not mine (and i have NT done it yet :S) .... Good luck :-D
What structure forms the outside boundary of a human body cell?
The outer cell wall may be composed of glucans - sugar based layers, or poly-muco-saccarides, or glycoproteins.Interestingly, while different cell types have different outer boundaries, they all have the same inner boundary: the bi-lipid layer called the cell membrane.
How is the cell of a one celled organism different from the cells in many-celled organism?
One cell or unicellular organism cells are of simpler forms mostly prokaryotes. In one cell organisms all the vital functions which are necessary for the life is carried by the same cell. In many cell or multicellular organisms the cells are complex and are called eukaryotic cells. In multicellular organism the cells are divided and are specialized in performing different functions according to need as some cells like blood work to carry oxygen, some cell hv functions like secreating some fluids like hormones or vitamins.
What does the nuclueus do?
It directs the cell's activities, functions, structure. It's pretty much the "brain" of the cell.The Nucleolus is like nucleus in a nucleus. It does the same exact task, but is the HEADQUARTERS, the highest position of direction.
What is a definition of a tissue cell?
generally, tissue means a group of cells having same structure and function. so, a tissue cell is one, involved in the tissue having same structure and functions as all the other cells involved in that particular tissue.
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
What are some gerbil brain functions?
same as a humans
A cell in a cat's heart and a cell in the same cat's brain have the same?
DNA
What is the cell structure of Baylisascaris?
every cell is the exact same
Do cells in your body all have the same structure and different functions?
no
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.
Does the DNA in the skin cell have the same sequence of bases as the DNA in the brain cell of the same organism?
It is true thatÊthe DNA in the skin cell have the same sequence of bases as the DNA in the brain cell of the same organism. The sequence of the bases should be the same in all cells of an organism.
What performs the same function as the nucleous?
The Brain, the Nucleus controls the Cells activities and the brain controls human activty, therefore they are similar
What performs the same function as ribosomes?
I believe it produce the same functions as a cell
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)
