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