You're on a roll — here are the answers for question 7: a) Identify FOUR specialized plant cells and describe their functions. 1. Root hair cell: Absorbs water and mineral salts from the soil. 2. Xylem vessel element: Transports water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant. 3. Phloem sieve tube element: Transports sugars (food) produced during photosynthesis from the leaves to other parts of the plant. 4. Guard cell: Regulates the opening and closing of stomata, controlling gas exchange and transpiration. b) Identify FOUR specialized animal cells and describe their functions. 1. Red blood cell (Erythrocyte): Transports oxygen from the lungs to the body tissues and carries carbon dioxide back to the lungs. 2. Nerve cell (Neuron): Transmits electrical signals (nerve impulses) throughout the body to coordinate actions and sensations. 3. Muscle cell (Myocyte): Contracts to produce movement in the body. 4. Sperm cell: Carries male genetic material to fertilize an egg cell. Send me the next one 📸
