Each cell is specialized to carry out its function (role it plays)

Specialised animal cell

Unique structure helps the cell to adapt for the function

Red Blood Cell Neurones Ciliated Cell

Function : Carry oxygen around the body Function : Carry electrical signal from one Function : Trap dust and bacteria from air
part of body to another
(Eg : signal from brain to muscle
to make muscle move)

Structure : Structure : Structure :

1) Smaller than most other cell
- allow to get through tiny blood capillary
- can deliver oxygen to every part of body
2) Cytoplasm contain red pigment
(call haemoglobin)
- element that carry the oxygen
3) Cell has no nucleus
- leaves more space for haemoglobin
1) Long strand of Cytoplasm call Axon
- electrical signal travel along this quickly
2) Short strand of Cytoplasm call Dendrites
- collect electrical signal from nearby
nerve cell
1) Example Ciliated cell lining along tube
from mouth to lung
2) Edge of Ciliated cell has Cilia
Cilia : microscopic hair, can move like hair
3) Other cell generate Mucus
- mucus trap dust and bacteria
- Cilia sweep mucus back into mouth
- we swallow mucus
 Questions

Answer 1 : Cell membrane, cytoplasm

Answer 2 : They do not have cell walls or large sap vacoules

Specialised plant cell
Unique structure helps the cell to adapt for the function

Root Hair Cell Palisade Cell

Function : Absorb water from the soil Function : To make food by photosynthesis

Structure : Structure :
1) Has a long, thin extension 1) Have a lot of chloroplasts containing chlorophyll
- allows water to move easily - absorbs energy from sunlight
- used to help the plant make food
 Questions

Answer 1 : They are underground where they get no sunlight

They cannot photosynthesise
Therefore no need for them to have chloroplasts

Answer 2 : Cell wall, cell membrane, cytoplasm.
