How is the structure of a podocyte relate to its function?
regulates glomerurlar function
What controls the activity of melanocytes?
Melanogenisis is the activity that controls melanocytes. Melanocytes are the cells in the human body that produce melanin, the pigmentation found in eyes and skin.
How is the structure of a cell relate to its function?
Are you seriously asking that now!?!
How are the shape of reed blood cells and nerve cells each relate to their function?
It has a bioconcave shape, so that makes it closer to the walls of the capillaries, and, it's an empty cell, which allows for more room haemogloblin. Lastly, it's liquid medium allows it to be pushed around the body
Does subcutaneous tissue contain specialized cells called melanocytes?
No, melanocytes are specialized cells found in the epidermis of the skin, not in the subcutaneous tissue. Melanocytes produce melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color.
Comparing Cells - size and shape relate to what?
The cells size and shape relate to its function.
How does a plant cell shape relate to its function?
kiss my bootayyy
How does the shape of the cell relate to the function?
The shape of the plant cell relates to its function directly. For instance, the epithelium has a large surface area due to its function of absorption.
Are melanocytes are the nerve cells that function in touch reception?
No
What do the melanocytes do?
Melanocytes are located in the bottom layer of the skin's epidermis, middle layer of the eye, inner ear, meninges, bones and heart. Melanocytes function is to produce melanin, which is the pigment primarily responsible for skin color.
Is there melanin in melanocytes?
Melanocytes produce melanin.
What do the melanocyte do?
Melanocytes are located in the bottom layer of the skin's epidermis, middle layer of the eye, inner ear, meninges, bones and heart. Melanocytes function is to produce melanin, which is the pigment primarily responsible for skin color.
Comparing cells size and shape are related to?
Cell size and shape are related to their specific functions and metabolic requirements. Larger cells may have more organelles to support specialized functions, while certain shapes (such as elongated nerve cells) are optimized for efficient signal transmission. Overall, cell size and shape play a crucial role in determining how a cell interacts with its environment and carries out its physiological processes.
How do molecules and organelles relate?
They relate because they have the same shape and size.
How is the structure of a podocyte relate to its function?
regulates glomerurlar function
What type of cell is responsible for the color and tone of our skin?
There are cells within the bottom layer of the epidermis (the stratum basale or stratum germinativum) called melanocytes. Melanocytes secrete a pigment called melanin which is responsible for giving our skin its color. Their main function though is to shield the nuclei of the keratinocytes (the main cells of the epidermis) to protect them from ultraviolet radiation from the sun. That's why we appear to tan in the sun.
What do melanocytes do?
Melanocytes produce melanin which contributes to pigmentation of the skin.
