What are bone and blood cells considered to be?
Specialized cells.
What does internal and external cells mean?
External respiration refers to the act of mechanically pulling air into the lungs via breathing. Internal respiration is the exchange of gasses from blood to tissue and vice versa.
Are specialized white blood cells that produce antibodies coded to destroy specific antigens?
plasma cells
What are exchanged between the body cells and the blood plasma?
There are many substances they exchange, but the main ones are oxygen from the blood to the cells and CO2 from the cells to the blood.
What are specialized groups of cells that are organized to perform specific functions?
In an adult organism most cells are specialized (only stem cells aren't). The types of specialized cells include blood cells, muscle cells, nerve cells, skin cells, liver cells, etc. Cells are orgainzed into organs, which collectively form bodies.
What occurs during gas exchange?
External Respiration is where gasses are absorbed into the blood through the alveolar capillary beds. Internal respiration is where the gasses are transferred into the cells from the blood.
What are bone and blood cells considered to be?
Specialized cells.
A specialized function shared by the many cells lining the lungs and the lumen of the gut is?
A specialized function shared by the many cells lining the lungs and the lumen of the gut is increased exchange surface provided by their membranes. Interstitial fluid provides for the exchange of materials between blood and body cells.
Are blood cells specialized cells?
yes
What blood cell carry's oxygen?
Hemoglobin is a metalloprotein, containing iron, that is within red blood cells and binds to gasses like oxygen in order to transport those gasses in the blood.
Where do specialized cells work?
in the blood
What cells are specialized to fight diseases?
white blood cells
Blood muscle and bone cells are examples of?
It is specialized cells
What are the organs of the pulmonary system where gas exchange occurs?
Gasses are exchanged mostly through the cells
What gasses pass from the blood into the body's cells?
Oxygen and food
What Specialized cells in the bone marrow that produce red blood cells?
stem cells
How are red blood cells specialized?
they don't have a nucleus.
