Specialised Cells

Question 1

What are different about specialised cells?

Answer 1

They have a particular function

Question 2

What is the specialised cells for digestion?

Answer 2

Small intestine epithelial cells

Question 3

What do small intestine Epithilial cells do?

Answer 3

( lining cells )

Allow for absorption of digested food molecules.

Question 4

What is special about the small intestine epithilial cells?

Answer 4

Small folds called microvilli which increase surface area for efficient food absorption

Question 5

What does a small intestine epithelial cell consist of?

Answer 5

Nucleus
Mitochondria
Cytoplasm

Question 6

Why does the small intestine contain lots of mitochondria?

Answer 6

To release energy for smooth muscle contraction

This pushes food through the digestive systems

Why does the pancreas produce lots of enzymes?

Answer 7

For digestion of large insoluble food molecules to be broken down to smaller soluble food molecules

Question 8

Enzymes are

Answer 8

Proteins

Question 9

Proteins are made in the

Answer 9
