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)


Why do cells in our body look different because the structure of the cell is based on?

Cells in our body look different because their structure is based on their specific functions and roles in the body.


How do stem cells differ from other cells?

Stem cells are unique because they have the ability to develop into different types of cells in the body, while other cells have specific functions and cannot change into different cell types.


Why do cells have different shapes and appearance?

Cells have different shapes and appearances based on their specialized functions within the organism. For example, nerve cells have long extensions to transmit electrical signals, while red blood cells are disc-shaped to maximize oxygen transport. The cell's structure and shape are determined by its internal components and external environment to efficiently carry out its specific role in the body.


In the human pancreas acinar cells produce digestive enzymes and beta cells produce insulin because of what?

Acinar cells produce digestive enzymes due to their role in aiding digestion in the small intestine, while beta cells produce insulin to regulate glucose levels in the blood. This specialization is driven by the different functions and requirements of these cell types in the body.

Why are shapes and sizes of cell different?

Cells are different shapes and sizes because they have different functions. The functions dictate the shapes and sizes.


Why do nerve cells and muscle cells look different?

Different cells have different appearences because they have different functions. A good rule of thumb is the "form follows function" rule.


What do cells have?

Cells have their different parts with different functions and properties.

Cells in our body look different because their structure is based on their specific functions and roles in the body.


How is the structure related to it's function?

They just are because different cells need different sized parts for different functions


Why are there different types of cells?

Because different types of cell have different functions. For example, hand cells and eye cells are different because you don't need hand to see and you don't need eyes to grab something(and move around the fingers). Or you don't need heart cells in your brain or thinking cells(or neurons) in your heart. Well to some extent, you do have soe brain cells in heart but not the main function cells. Jesse


What is the livers smallest organ?

Its individual cells, as in any organ. It is a complex organ with many "departments" dedicated to many different functions.


Why can protein perform so many different functions?

Because it is a principal component of all cells.


Are there different types of cells?

The diversity of cells reflects their different functions in organisms.


Do cells have different environments and functions?

No
