24
Q

Muscular system cells

A

Bring about movement

25
Nervous system cells
Respond to internal and external stimuli and conditions, carry messages for the body work as a coordinated whole
26
Skeletal system cells
To bring about movement, support and protect internal structures, produce blood cells, store and release calcium
27
Palisade mesophyll
Carry out photosynthesis
28
Spongy mesophyll
Allow gases to circulate for the exchange of gases between the leaf and the environment, carry out some photosynthesis
29
Guard cells
Open and close to control the exchange of gases – carbon dioxide, water vapour and oxygen
30
Transport products of photosynthesis, including sugars and amino acids, from the leaf to where they are needed
Sieve tubes
31
Provide the energy required for transporting substances in sieve tubes
Companion cells
32
Transport products of photosynthesis, including sugars and amino acids, from the leaf to where they are needed
Xylem vessels
33
Produces new cells as they divide
Meristem
