Tissues

Multiple Choice

Why is cell diversity important for the functioning of the human body?

• It allows for specialization of cells to perform different functions.

• It makes all cells identical, simplifying body processes.

• It limits the number of cell types, reducing complexity.

• It prevents cells from interacting with each other.
