12. Provide a description of a cell surface specialization. A cell surface specialization can be defined as an extension of the cell surface which performs a specific function for a larger organ or tissue. Examples of cell surface specializations include microvilli‚ cilia‚ stereocilia‚ and goblet cells. Microvilli can be described as tiny finger-like folds made of microfilaments in the cell membrane‚ and functions to increase surface area for absorption. Cilia are longer‚ more hair-like projections

Review Chapter 4 BB Notes Cells Under the Microscope Cells are microscopic in size. Although a light microscope allows you to see cells‚ it cannot make out the detail that an electron microscope can. The overall size of a cell is regulated by the surface-area-to-volume ratio. 4.2 The Plasma Membrane The plasma membrane of both prokaryotes and eukaryotes is a phospholipid bilayer. The phospholipid bilayer regulates the passage of molecules and ions into and out of the cell. The fluid-mosaic model

Science 9 Chapter 5.1 The Cell Cycle and Mitosis Pg152-158 Notes Cell Replacement and Development -Cells continue to divide as you continue to grow. -Muscle & nerve cells usually do not continue to divide in adult. The Cell Cycle -Life of cell = divided into 3 stages called cell cycle. -Stages = Interphase‚ Mitosis and Cytokinesis -Interphase= cells carry out functions necessary for survival and cells that divide prepare for reproduction. -Mitosis divides duplicated contents of cell’s nucleus

recess to study for testing and only one state requires physical-fitness classes.” It is terrible that most of these children taking exams are obese. In addition‚ they live in a dangerous neighborhood where they can’t go out and play because drug activity and violent crime may make playing outside dangerous. Communities should take part in making the neighborhood a safe haven for kids to play outside. The second cause of childhood obesity is poor eating habits. Children will rather eat candy instead
