Question
What do you call a finger-like projection that arises from epithelial layer in some organs that helps to increase surface area allowing for faster and more efficient adsorption? A. cillia B. flagella C. microvilli D. villi Cell modification is the change in the structure of cell to carry out specialized function. Which of the following words will BEST describe the cell modification? A. alteration B. differentiation C. evolution D. mutation You learned that cells are structurally modified so that they can perform their function efficiently and effectively. Which of the following structures have specialized functions due to cell modification? I. Guard cells II. Haemoglobin Trichomes Xylem vessels III. IV. A. 1, II and III B. I, II and Iv C. I, III, and IV D. I, II, III and IV Which of the following statements best illustrate the adaptation and function of nodified cell? A. The xylem in the leaf helps the leaf to be positioned horizontally towards the sun. B. The hair-like structure in the root helps to increase the surface area of root hair cell. C. Red blood cell has biconcave for increasing its surface area thus diffusion of oxygen in and out of the cell becomes easy. D. Guard cells are specialized in such a way that the cell wall in the inner side of the guard cell is thicker than the outer side which makes the guard cell turgid. Which of the following statement are true? Cell modification is a process that occurs after cell division where the newly formed cells are structurally modified. Cilia, flagella, and pseudopods are examples apical cell modifications that have a whip like structures. Tight junctions, adhering junctions, and gap junctions are all found in basal surface of the cell. Basal Modification is specialized structures which facilitate stable adhesion of basal cells to basement membrane. A. I and II I. II. III. IV. B. Il and III C. I, II and IV D. II, III and IV Suppose you are to describe structure 3, which of the following best describes it? 1 3 Figure 4. Cell Modification (Source: https//www.nlideshare.net/leson-4-cel-medifications A. It is known as communicating junctions that sends signal to other cells. B. It allows direct exchange of chemicals between the cytoplasm of two cells. C. It acts as barriers that regulate the movement of water and solutes between epithelial layers. D. It is an anchoring junction on the lateral surface of the cell which fastens cells to another basement membrane.
