Protection
Secretion
How is a leaf cell adapted for absorbing light efficiently?
It has a cellulose cell wall
It has a large vacuole
It has lots of chloroplasts
It has a large nucleus
How is a plant root hair cell adapted for absorbing water from the soil efficiently?
It has many chloroplasts
It has lots of mitochondria
It has a large surface area
It has a large vacuole
Why are specialised cells important?
They can perform any type of job
They are more efficient at carrying out a specific job
They can carry out their job very quickly
They can become any type of cell
What is the function of root hair cells?
absorb water and mineral salts
transport water and mineral salts
transport oxygen
provide mechanical support
How are red blood cells adapted to perform their function? You may choose more than 1 option.
biconcave shape
long and narrow extension
no protoplasm
no nucleus
contain haemoglobin
How are root hair cells adapted to perform their function? You may choose more than 1 option.
no cross walls
long and narrow extension
no protoplasm
contain lignin
contain many mitochondria
The red pigment in red blood cells that is able to bind to oxygen is called (a) .
How does the absence of a nucleus adapt red blood cells for their function?
increased rate of diffusion in/out of cell
more space in the cell for haemoglobin
reduced resistance to water flow
greater mechanical strength
What are the functions of sperm cells?
Swim
Fertilise egg
Carry father DNA
Carry oxygen
Pregnancy
How does sperm cell adapt to its function?
Flagellum to swim
Lots of mitochondria for energy
Acrosome contain enzyme
Large in size to store nutrient
are produced from testes
What are the functions of egg cells?
Carry mother DNA
Carry father DNA
Fertilised with sperm
Develop into zygote
How does egg cell adapt to its functions?
It is large to contain a lot of nutrient
Round shape so it can move quickly
Can be transferred by wind
A lot of mitochondria to provide energy
