Solution

Animal cells:

These are eukaryotic cells enclosed by a cell membrane. It is made up of various cell organelles and has a membrane-bound nucleus.

Types of animal cells:

Skin cells:

Skin is the layer of normally delicate, adaptable external tissue covering the body of a vertebrate creature, with three fundamental capacities: security, guideline, and sensation.

Blood cells:

  1. A type of blood cell that is made in the bone marrow and found in the blood.
  2. Red blood cells contain a protein called hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body.
  3. Checking the number of red blood cells in the blood is usually part of a complete blood cell (CBC) test.
  4. It may be used to look for conditions such as anemia, dehydration, malnutrition, and leukemia.
  5. Also called erythrocyte and RBC.

Muscle cells:

  1. Muscle cells, commonly known as myocytes, are the cells that make up muscle tissue.
  2. There are 3 types of muscle cells in the human body; cardiac, skeletal, and smooth.
  3. Cardiac and skeletal myocytes are sometimes referred to as muscle fibers due to their long and fibrous shape.
  4. Cardiac muscle cells, or cardiomyocytes, are the muscle fiber that comprises the myocardium, the middle muscular layer, of the Heart.
  5. These are of three kinds, smooth muscle tissue found in internal linings of organs, skeletal muscle tissue- assists in body development, and cardiac muscle with covering tracked down in the heart.

Nerve cells:

  1. Sensory tissues are the cells that structure the focal and fringe sensory system.
  2. While in the focal sensory system, the sensory tissues structure the spinal line and the mind, in the fringe sensory system, the sensory tissues make up the cranial and spinal nerves, additionally including the engine and tangible neurons.
  3. The main capacity of the nerve tissues is to communicate and convey nerve driving forces in different pieces of the body.
  4. Nerve cells can be of three kinds: tactile neurons, engine neurons, and interneurons.
