Which two (2) statements are correct examples of the “structure determines function” relationship among specialized cells in an organism? a Leaf cells in plants contain chloroplasts to absorb sunlight. b Human nerve cells are small and square to easily fit through blood vessels. c Pancreas cells have long branch-like parts of their cell membrane to produce insulin. d Cells that line the small intestine have a flat and smooth surface to increase the absorption of nutrients. e Human sperm cells have a "tail" like structure called a flagellum that allows the cell to move.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A and E are the correct.

Explanation:

Examples of the structures that determine function:

a) Chloroplasts only found in plant cells. They work to fix the CO2 in the presence of light energy (sunlight) and convert the reactants into sugar molecules (carbohydrates) that can be used by cells for metabolic functioning.

e) Sperm is the male reproductive cell. Motile sperm cells have a tail-like structure that typically move via flagella and requires a water medium in order to swim toward the egg for fertilization.

Other options are not correct because they don't explain their function according to their structure.
