4
Q
How are muscle cell adapted to function
A
- lots mitochondria
- long- muscles can contract
5
Q
How are sperm cells adapted to function
A
- Enzymes- digest cell membrane egg
- long tail and streamlines head- allow quick movement
- lots mitochondria
6
Q
How are nerve cells adapted to their function
A
- branched connectionns- connect to other cells, form networks
- axon- long- carry rapid signalling
7
Q

- mitochondria,
- nucleus
- chloroplasts
- diff dna/nucleus -single loop, plasmid
11
Q
Structures baterial cells have
A
- cell membrane
- cell wall
- slime capsual- stick to surfaces
- plasmid DNA
- single loop dna
- pili-adhesive and reproduction
- flagellum- move
12
Q
Specialised cells
A
Has aquired diff sub-cellular structures to enable it to carry out a specific function
13
Q
Mature cell division
A
For growth and repair
14
Q
Electron microscope
A
- much higher resolution
- not incolour- but light microscope is
- high reso power
- enables cells to be studied in much greater detail
15
Q
Uses of human stem cells
A
-treatments of diabetes and apralysis
