Cells: Structure, Function, and Specialization

In this episode we give a comprehensive overview of cell structure and function tailored for GCSE science revision, primarily focusing on the Edexcel curriculum. The sources differentiate between the three major cell types—animal, plant, and bacterial cells—by detailing their sub-cellular components and explaining how each component’s structure relates to its specific purpose, such as the mitochondria providing energy for respiration and ribosomes facilitating protein synthesis. A key distinction is made between eukaryotic cells (plant and animal, which possess a nucleus) and prokaryotic cells (bacteria, which lack a nucleus). Furthermore, the texts examine specialized animal cells like sperm, egg, and ciliated epithelial cells, illustrating how their unique adaptations enable them to perform particular biological functions within an organism.
