Human physiology Nurse cells are specialized macrophages residing in the bone marrow, that assist in the development of red blood cells. They absorb the nuclei of immature red blood cells and may provide growth factors to help the red blood cells mature. In the bone marrow, immature red blood cells (erythroblasts) can be seen grouped in a cluster around a nurse cell.
Microbiology Nurse cell is a term used to describe an infected cell in the disease trichinosis. A trichinella larva enters a cell and develops there, probably as a way of concealing itself from the immune system. The parasite has evolved a way of stimulating blood vessel development around the cell, in order to receive the nutrients it needs. In trichinosis, nurse cells are invariably skeletal muscle cells; this are the only type of cell that can support the parasite. Nurse cells in respect to drosophilla: These polytenic germline contribute to the development of the drosophilla oocyte, producing about 250-500 nuclei each 15 of them in each oocyte create 5000 nuclei in total. They dump their cytoplasm containing the nuclei into the oocyte via ring channels. http://www.answers.com/topic/nurse-cell?cat=technology

Mitosis is the duplication of cells DNA. Its functions are for growth of the body from baby to adulthood and repair injuries of the body.
major fuel source for cells Maintains blood glucose levels.
Brain cells and lung cells are different because they each have different functions and carry out different jobs and specialize in different things.
all cells preform various jobs or functions. theres not one cell that does nothing. if a cell does nothing than its most likely not a cell.
nurse cells nourish the sperm cells until they have fully developed
What is true of cells that have similar functions?
Sertoli cells are also known as "sustentacular cells."
skin cells, muscle cells, and bone cells.
Cells have their different parts with different functions and properties.
No

Cells with their own unique structures and functions are specialized cells, such as nerve cells, muscle cells, and sperm cells. These cells have distinct shapes and functions that allow them to perform specific tasks within the body. Each specialized cell type has adaptations that make them well-suited for their particular function.
Neurons, sarcomeres, osteoblasts, and cardiac muscle cells all have specialized functions performed by no other cells.
