3.1 - Cell Basics

PREVIEW

For this topic preview we will be examining some additional different types of unique cells. To complete the preview, you will be researching one of the specialized cells assigned in class. (Adipocytes, neuron, osteoblast, schwann cell, astrocyte, rod cells, cone cells, ciliated epithelial cells)

- If you were absent when cells were assigned, simply pick one from above!

1) What is the general function of the cell 

2) Why is this cell's anatomy different, in order to help it's physiology (why is it unique???)

3) Draw a quick sketch of the cell and label it's structures including labeling the specialized anatomy. (you may use the backside of you topic guide if necessary).
