Study Notes
Cellular Specialization
- Cells that carry out specialized functions have the advantage of increasing efficiency and allowing for more complex life forms.
Organisms with Multiple Cells
- Multicellular organisms, such as humans, have millions of cells that work together to maintain life.
Muscle Cells
- Muscle cells, also known as muscle fibers, contract and relax to cause movement in human beings.
Plant Vascular Tissues
- Vascular tissues in plants, consisting of xylem and phloem, conduct water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant.
Tissue Organization
- A group of cells that specialize in one function in the body is termed a tissue.
