Matching Pairs Specialized Animal CellsOnline version assignment by Benjamin D Morgan 1 Controlled Variable 2 Nerve cell function 3 specialized cells 4 Dependent Variable 5 Independent Variable 6 Muscle Cell Function 7 Nerve Cell Structure 8 Epithilial Cell Structure 9 Muscle cell structure 10 Connective cell Function 11 Epithilial Cell Function 12 Connective cell structure A cell that has a specific function, different from other cells. FUNCTION: Lines the surfaces of blood vessels, organs, and skin for protection and separation of those items from the environment The variable that is measured in and experiment STRUCTURE: Multiple cells are tightly packed so items cannot pass through these AND have a top/bottom that is strong and difficult to penetrate. The variable that is made different in an experiment STRUCTURE: Long cells allow them to stretch out long distances AND have large ends to connect to the next cell for easier communication FUNCTION: to contract so that they can move body parts FUNCTION: Holds the different body parts together FUNCTION: carry electrical impulses (information) to different parts of the body The variable that is kept the same in an experiment STRUCTURE: jelly-like with spindly fibers that help it to stick to other cells STRUCTURE: Contains more mitochondria for greater energy production AND are able to change their length
