Select one or more of the following:

  • Many mitochondria to generate ATP

  • Undulipodium aids rapid movement

  • Diploid nucleus ready for fertilisation

Neutrophils are a type of blood cell which have a - nucleus. Their main role is to invading pathogens.

Explanation

Connective tissue is made up of specialised cells.

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Cartilage is secreted by cells called , which mature into , responsible for the ECM. The three types of cartilage are , f, and e.

Fill the blank spaces to complete the text.

Red blood cells are also known as . Their main role is to transport and carbon dioxide around the body. They are specialised to fulfil this purpose thanks to their shape which gives them a large . Also, in order to increase room for inside the cell, they don't have any .

( Epithelial, Cardiac, Myocytic, Mitochondrial ) cells form a ( lining, muscle, gland, neuron ) in many different organs and structures. The cells are joined together by ( tight junctions, light junctions, wide junctions, permeable junctions ) which facilitates ( communication, programmed cell death, protein synthesis, mitosis ) and keeps them ( tightly packed, loosely touching, mobile, unspecialised ). Some have cilia, for example in ( the respiratory tract, bone tissue, the cornea, nerve cells ), which help waft ( mucus, lipids, hormones ) and foreign particles up to the throat. Others have microvilli, for example in ( the digestive tract, the liver, glial cells, blood vessel endothelium ), to ( increase, decrease ) surface area and increase rate of ( absorption, digestion, cell division ). These type of cell tend to have ( short, long ) cell life cycles.

  • Smooth

  • Cardiac

  • Skeletal

  • Striated

Explanation

  • Heart

  • Digestive

  • Skin

  • Musculo-skeletal

  • Respiratory

  • Nervous

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Select from the dropdown lists to complete the text.

( Stem cells, Erythrocytes, Cardiac cells, Genetically engineered mice ) are a hot topic in scientific research because of their wide range of potential applications, including cancer therapy, treatment of immune diseases, and regeneration of damaged tissues and organs. If stem cells can become ( nerve, blood, muscle, kidney ) cells, they can be used to treat Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Growing organs from a patient's own stem cells avoids the need for ( immunosuppressive therapy, long transplant surgery, patient-specific aftercare ). This is called ( regenerative, systemic, organ, specialised ) medicine. They're also key in understanding aspects of ( developmental, plant, cognitive, mobile ) biology. Finally, stem cells can be used to grow organs on which to safely test new therapeutic drugs.
