Why are cells specilized to carry out specific functions?
TaylorAtkins
Without this, there really wouldn't be much of a body. With cells performing different functions, they are able to form tissues, which eventually make organs. These organs then work together as a whole to keep the organism alive. Each cell contributes to the organisms well being.

A group of specialized cells first forms a?
A group of specialized cells first form a tissue. The tissue then works together as one unit to carry out a pirticular function forms the organ. e.g the heart.
At the genetic level how does a lung cell differ from a brain cell?
Brain cells and lung cells are different because they each have different functions and carry out different jobs and specialize in different things.
How is sieve tube different from companion cells?
The sieve tube elements are specialized elongated cells in the phloem that connect end to end forming a tube. The main function of this tube is to transport nutrition in the form of carbohydrates. Sieve cells have no nucleus, ribosomes and cytoplasm, meanin they cannot carry out primary metabolic activities. The companion cells, which are closely associated with the sieve tube elements, carry out the their metabolic functions.
How do pholem and xylem help maintain homeostasis in plants?
Tissues are a group of similar cells that together carry out different functions. In the case of the plant stem, for example, there is phloem for transporting food, and xylem for transporting water and minerals. Tissues have specific functions.
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.
How would you best describe cells?
Small organisms in your body that carry out specific functions.
What are tiny cell structures that carry out specific functions on the cell?
They are organelles;
Why do cells in your body need to be specilized?
they are said to be specilized for particular tasks
What do genes do to help cells carry out their functions?
What do genes do to help carry out their functions
How do guard cells carry functions?
they just carry it
How many functions do animal cells carry out?

carbohydrates
What functions must a cell be able to carry out?
cells
What are the smallest units that carry the functions of life?
Cells.
What are organelles made of?
According to scientists, organelles are specialized features within prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells that carry out specific functions. An example in eukaryotic cells, one organelle is the Golgi apparatus which sorts and process proteins. In prokaryotic cells, the Pilli is an organelle that transfers DNA.
What are 3 functions of the bloodstream?
-To carry oxygen to all your cells -To carry cells that fight bacteria -And help carry things to parts of your body
Which microscopic structures carry out the major life functions?
Orgenelles are the specific subunits within cells that are tasked with carrying out a specific life function within the cell. The word "Organelle" comes from the idea that they are the same to cells as organs are to the body.
