Cell

Celltypes
Types
Ithas number in trillions and come in all
shapes and sizes. These tiny structures are the
basic unit of living organisms.
Analyze the photos and
describe what you see
in the pictures.
ACTIVITY 1 Picture Analysis
ANALYSIS.

•What type of cell shown in the picture?


•Why they have different forms?
•What are the function of each cell?
Different Types of cells in the human body (based
on tissue formation)
1. Bone cells:
They are the toughest body cell systems and are bound together by
calcium and phosphate. they give strength, support, and framework
to the body by enclosing organs in the skeletal system, i.e., bones.
2. Cartilage cells (chondrocytes) These cells are similar to bone
cells, but the surrounding material is just loose and flexible
compared to those of bone cells. Hence they are freely bendable.
They are present in ear bone (therefore ears are fold-able), in
between large bones to help them bend and move freely like in
between two ribs, spinal bones, joints, etc.
3. Nerve cells: These cells form the nervous system.
4. Epithelial Cells- They form covering layers of all the
organs and hence are present in skin, scalp, respiratory tract, in
the buccal cavity surface, over the surface of the heart, etc.
Ex: Skin cells, mucous cells.
5. Muscle cell- responsible for the movements of our body.
They are mostly long, large .There are three types -skeletal,
cardiac and smooth muscle cells.
SECRETORY CELL- found in all secretory organs
pancreatic cells -insulin, glucagon,
salivary gland -salivary amylase,
sebaceous gland -oil on the skin, etc.
ADIPOSE cell- These are fat cells and are sites where
fat is stored. EX: soles, palms, bums, etc. They reduce
friction to the body.
BLOOD Cell - They are always motile and never
stay in one place. They have a limited lifespan, and
they never multiply to form new cells. Instead, new
cells are formed from other cells.
Ex: RBC’s, WBC, Thrombocytes, etc.
Conductive cells: - They have an inherent
ability to conduct an electric impulse from one
region to other distant regions in the body. Ex:
Nerve cells, muscle cells
Connective cells: - They help connect other
cells and tissues.
Ex: Bone cells, blood cells 
Cells in the human body-based on their
function
Glandular cells: They form glands like the pancreas,
salivary glands, etc. and help in the production of 
enzymes, hormones, etc.
Storage cells: -act to store materials like fat for later
use.
Ex: Adipose cells, some liver cells
Supportive cells: These are the cells which are
present as support to adjacent cells. Ex: Glial
cells in the brain and spinal cord help provide
nourishment to the nerve cells and also protect
them from shocks and trauma.
