Study Notes

Blood Cells

  • Types:
    • Red Blood Cells (RBCs):
      • Carry oxygen from lungs to body tissues
      • Contain hemoglobin
      • No nucleus
    • White Blood Cells (WBCs):
      • Part of immune system
      • Help fight infection
      • Have a nucleus
    • Platelets:
      • Help blood clot
      • No nucleus
  • Functions:
    • RBCs: transport oxygen and carbon dioxide
    • WBCs: defend against infection and disease
    • Platelets: blood clotting and wound healing

Muscle Cells

  • Types:
    • Skeletal Muscle Cells:
      • Voluntary muscle movement
      • Multinucleated
      • Striated appearance
    • Smooth Muscle Cells:
      • Involuntary muscle movement
      • Single nucleus
      • Non-striated appearance
    • Cardiac Muscle Cells:
      • Involuntary muscle movement
      • Single nucleus
      • Striated appearance
  • Functions:
    • Skeletal Muscle Cells: movement and support
    • Smooth Muscle Cells: contraction and relaxation (e.g. in digestive tract)
    • Cardiac Muscle Cells: heart contraction and pumping blood

Fat Cells

  • Types:
    • White Adipose Tissue:
      • Energy storage
      • Insulation
    • Brown Adipose Tissue:
      • Heat generation
      • Energy expenditure
  • Functions:
    • Energy storage and release
    • Insulation and thermoregulation
    • Hormone regulation (e.g. leptin)

Test your knowledge of different cell types, including blood cells, muscle cells, and fat cells. Learn about their functions, characteristics, and importance in the human body.
