Q

Within the cytoplasm, the following organelles are visible in almost all cells except prokaryotes when looking at higher magnification (ie using an electron microscope): state them and where they can be found

A

Mitochondria (singular: mitochondrion) are organelles found throughout the cytoplasm Ribosomes are tiny structures that can be free within the cytoplasm or attached to a system of membranes within the cell known as Endoplasmic Reticulum Endoplasmic reticulum studded with ribosomes looks rough under the microscope; this gives rise to its name of Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (often shortened to R.E.R.) Vesicles can also be seen using a higher magnification – these are small circular structures found moving throughout the cytoplasm

Q

Specialised cells are those which have

A

developed certain characteristics in order to perform particular functions Cells specialise by undergoing differentiation: a process that involves the cell gaining new structures within the cell in order for its structure to be suited to its function
