QUICK LAB
Evaluating Specialization
In this activity, you will build a paper chain according to specific steps to explore
the advantages of specialization. Many of the tasks that are performed in the
human body require multiple steps. Different cells may perform different steps in
the process. In this activity, you will first build the chain alone, performing all the
steps yourself. Then you will coordinate with a group to build the chain, dividing
the steps among the group members, with each one specializing in only one
function. You will then evaluate the efficiency and productivity of working alone
versus working within a group. You will compare this activity to the hierarchical
organization of organisms, from cells to organisms.
PROCEDURE
Review the following instructions for constructing a paper chain:
A. Use a ruler and pencil to mark strips on a sheet of paper that are 8
inches long and 1 inch wide.
B. Use scissors to carefully cut out each strip.
C. Use a marker to write the entire alphabet on each strip.
OBJECTIVES
• Evaluate the
advantages of
specialization.
• Compare models of
unicellular and
multicellular
processes.
MATERIALS
For each group
• marker
• paper
• pencil
• ruler
• scissors
• tape
For each student
• safety goggles
D. Make the first loop in the chain by curling the strip end to end and using
tape to connect the ends and make a loop.
E. For the rest of the strips, thread one end of the strip through the previous loop,
and tape the ends of the strip to form another loop.
Gather your materials.
When your teacher instructs you to begin, make as many loops in your paper chain as you
can within 5 minutes. When time is up, count how many loops you have made and record
the number below.
_________________________________________________________________________
Form a group with four other students. Add up all the chain loops you each made. What is
the total number of paper chain loops made by your group working as individuals?

Quick Lab continued
With your group, discuss how you could work together to make more paper chain loops in
5 minutes. Do any steps of the paper chain process take a long time? How can you make
this step more efficient? How will you organize your group to make more loops?

_________________________________________________________________________
When your teacher says to begin, work with your group to make paper chain loops for 5
minutes. How many paper chain loops did your group make?
_________________________________________________________________________
Did you make more paper chain loops when you were working individually or when you
were working with your group?
_________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________________

How does working alone versus working in a group relate to specialization in unicellular
versus multicellular organisms?

If you have time, repeat Steps 4–6 and try to improve your efficiency.

Super Cells
OBJECTIVE: Work with a partner to explore the structure and function of specialized cells by designing
super hero cells with special powers. Imagine that these superheroes are on a mission inside the
human body. Design superhero characters to represent the following specialized cells:
Blood cell
Nerve cell
Muscle cell
REQUIREMENTS:
For each superhero please include:
 ILLUSTRATION – Illustrate the superhero inside the body. Make sure it’s superpowers reflect its
function (or job) inside the body.
 STRUCTURE – Give a 2-3 sentence explanation of the hero’s design and shape.
 FUNCTION – Give a 2-3 sentence explanation of the hero’s powers and why they need them.
BACKGROUND INFO:
NERVE CELLS
Cells of the nervous system, called nerve cells or
neurons, are specialized to carry "messages" through an
electrochemical process. The human brain has
approximately 100 billion neurons. Neurons come in
many different shapes and sizes. Some of the smallest
neurons have cell bodies that are only 4 microns wide.
Some of the biggest neurons have cell bodies that are
100 microns wide. Neurons are similar to other cells in
the body because they are surrounded by a cell
membrane, they have a nucleus that contains genes, and they contain cytoplasm, mitochondria and other organelles.
However, neurons differ from other cells in the body because they have specialized cell parts called dendrites and axons.
Dendrites bring electrical signals to the cell body and axons take information away from the cell body. Neurons
communicate with each other through an electrochemical process. Neurons contain some specialized structures (for
example, synapses) and chemicals (for example, neurotransmitters).

MUSCLE CELLS
A myocyte (also known as a muscle cell) is the type of cell found in muscle
tissue. Myocytes are long, tubular cells that develop to form muscles. There
are various specialized forms of myocytes: cardiac, skeletal, and smooth
muscle cells, with various properties. The striated cells of cardiac and skeletal
muscles are referred to as muscle fibers. Cardiomyocytes are the muscle fibers
that form the chambers of the heart, and have a single central nucleus.
Skeletal muscle fibers help support and move the body and tend to have
peripheral nuclei. Smooth muscle cells control involuntary movements such as
the contractions in the esophagus and stomach.
BLOOD CELLS
There are three main types of blood cells: red blood cells
(erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets
(thrombocytes). Hemoglobin (the main component of red blood
cells) is an iron-containing protein that facilitates transportation of
oxygen from the lungs to tissues and carbon dioxide from tissues to
the lungs. Red blood cells or erythrocytes, primarily carry oxygen
and collect carbon dioxide through the use of hemoglobin, and have
a lifetime of about 120 days. RBCs (red blood cells) are formed in the
red bone marrow in the adults. White blood cells, or leukocytes, are
cells of the immune system involved in defending the body against
both infectious disease and foreign materials. Platelets, or
thrombocytes or yellow blood cells, are very small, irregularly shaped
clear cell fragments (i.e. cells that do not have a nucleus containing
DNA). They circulate in the blood of mammals and are involved in
hemostasis, leading to the formation of blood clots. Platelets release thread-like fibers to form these clots.
