Cell Type
How does this characteristic help the
cell in doing its function?
1. Sperm cell
During sexual reproduction, the flagellum
allows the sperm cell to swim from the male
body to the female body where the egg cell is.
The root hair increases the root cell's surfac
area, allowing the cell to absorb more wate
and minerals from the soil.
