Group of similar cells that perform a similar function?
tissues are group of cell that perform a specific similar function.
What function adds the cells specified by a given condition or criteria?
The SUMIF function in Excel adds cells based on a single condition or criteria. If you have multiple conditions, you can use the SUMIFS function instead.
How are cells related to the formation and function of organs?
Cells are the building blocks of organs in the body. Different types of cells come together to form tissues, which then work together to create organs. Each cell has a specific function within the organ, contributing to its overall structure and function. This collaboration of cells allows organs to perform their specialized tasks and maintain the body's overall health and function.
What are some important questions to ask about cells?
Some important questions to ask about cells include: What is the function of this cell? How does it interact with other cells? What organelles does it contain? How does it reproduce? What is its role in the overall function of the organism?
Do animal cells have cell walls, and if so, what is the function of these cell walls in animal cells?
Animal cells do not have cell walls. The function of cell walls in plant cells is to provide structural support and protection, but animal cells rely on other structures like the cytoskeleton for support and protection.
What is stromal Tissue?
Stromal tissue refers to the supportive connective tissue found in various organs, providing structure and support to the parenchymal cells, which are the functional cells of the organ. It is composed of a matrix of cells, including fibroblasts, immune cells, and extracellular components like collagen and elastin. Stromal tissue plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and function of organs, as well as in processes like wound healing and inflammation. Its characteristics can vary significantly depending on the specific organ and its physiological needs.
What is the name of the supportive or stromal cells of the nervous system?
neuroglia
How do stromal fibroblasts drive tumor development?
Stromal Fibroblasts produce the connective tissue that surrounds tumor cells. As cancer grows it demands more nutrients so more and more of these stromal cells sacrifice themselves to provide recycled nutrients to tumor cells. Without recycled nutrients provided by fibroblasts, tumor cells are more fragile and die. Researchers propose that available drugs (now on the market), which sever the "parasitic" connection between tumor cells and fibroblasts, may be effective therapeutics.
What is a Parenchymal cell?
Parenchyma cells refer to the bulk/functional parts of an organ. This is in contrast to stromal cells which refer to structural parts of the organ, i.e. the connective tissue. Below are some examples of parenchayma cells: Kidney- nephrons Liver- hepatocytes Brain- neurons Ask yourself, "What is the function of this organ?" Then name the cell in the organ that provides said function. -KG
How do you tell the difference of different endometrial types?
endometrial stromal, glandular and lymphomyeloid cells all produce C3. These can only be differentiated by a microscope.
What is an example of compensatory hyperplasia?
an increase in the number of essentially normal cells examples : BPH benign prostatic hyperplasia is due to an increase in the number of glandular epithelial cells and stromal cells due to decreased apoptosis
What is pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH)?
Pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH) is a benign breast condition characterized by the proliferation of stromal cells that mimic vascular structures without true endothelial lining. It typically presents as a palpable mass or is incidentally found on imaging or histological examination. PASH is most commonly seen in premenopausal women and is not associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. Although it can cause confusion in diagnosis, it generally requires no specific treatment apart from routine monitoring.
What does ''specialization of cell '' mean?
when cells are designed to do a specific function
What has the author Julie Ann Perry written?
Julie Ann Perry has written: 'An investigation of bone marrow stromal stem cells for gene therapy in X-linked Alport Syndrome'
What is stromal inflammation?
Stroma usually refers to the connective tissue that supports an organ. Inflammation is the body's responce to injury or irritation. Inflammation is characterized with redness, increased temperature, and pain. So stromal inflammation means that the tissue that supports a particular organ was showing some signs of inflammation.
What is the stromal tissue of nervous system called?
brain
Can Gastrointestinal stromal tumor metastic in the brain?
yes
