Animal cells move primarily through the action of the cytoskeleton, which is a network of protein filaments and tubules that provide structural support and facilitate movement. Cells can use mechanisms like amoeboid movement, where they extend protrusions called pseudopodia, or through the coordinated beating of cilia and flagella. Additionally, cells can migrate in response to chemical signals through processes like chemotaxis, allowing them to move toward or away from specific stimuli. These movements are crucial for processes such as tissue repair, immune responses, and development.
What else can I help you with?
What types of cells contact to move an animal?
Muscle cells move bones which move animals.
Why do animal cells move?
Because they are travlers
What type of cells contracts to move an animal cell?
muscle cells...
What types of cells contracts to move an animal?
muscle cells...
Do all animal cells move independently?
No, not all animal cells move independently. Some animal cells are part of tissues and organs that are anchored in place and do not move on their own. Other cells, like immune cells and muscle cells, have the ability to move independently within the body.
Why are animal cells different from plant cells?
a plant cell has a cell wall and an animal cell doesn't if it did the animal wouldn't be able to move.
How does not having a cell wall affect the development of an animal cell?
By not having a cell wall (cellulose) the animal cells are not rigid. When the cells are not rigid, they can move. If animal cells would have cells walls, animals wouldn't be able to move and be static as a plant. Also cells explode without cell wall. Actually plant cells do move...the roots move slowly down into the soil and the leaves move toward the light. Animal cells do not explode without a cell wall. They are stable enough with a few proteins and cholesterol in their membranes.
Are cilia are extensions of animal cells that move rapidly?
It is true that cilia are extensions of animal cells and that they move rapidly. They are found in several locations in the human body, including the lungs.
Are motor neurone cells animal cells or plant cells?
Motor implies movement. Plants don't move. They're animal cells.Plants don't have nerves.
What is the difference between plant cells and animal cells that give animal cells the ability to move?
Animals have different forms of specialization that allow them to have muscle cells and other cells that aid movement.
Why do plant cells have different parts to animal cells?
because plants can't move animals do!
Do plant cells use more energy or animal cells?
Animal cells use more energy because unlike plant cells, animal cells can move at any speed and it also runs and walk to retrieve food. This puts more strain on the animal cells than on the plant cell :)
