Question

What are the different types of movements exhibited by the cells of human body?

Answer in Brief

Solution

Movement is a characteristic feature of living organisms. The different types of movement exhibited by cells in the human body are:

  1. Amoeboid movement: Leucocytes present in the blood show amoeboid movement. During tissue damage, these blood cells move from the circulatory system towards the injury site to initiate an immune response.
  2. Ciliary movement: Reproductive cells such as sperm and ova show ciliary movement. The passage of ova through the fallopian tube towards the uterus is facilitated by this movement.
  3. Muscular movement: Muscle cells show muscular movement.
    • The movement of the eyeball is done by unlined muscles in the eye cavity. The iris and ciliary body regulate the amount of light that passes into the retina.
    • The cardiac muscles of the heart and the cardiac muscles of the blood vessels help with blood circulation.  The descent of the unlined muscles located between the diaphragm and the diaphragm and the rise of the central part are responsible for the process of breathing.
    • Food moves due to peristaltic movements in the muscles of the alimentary canal. The food is pulp style.
