How are organelles distributed in this cell?

Question Description

can you answer these questions about cells and tissues (rod and cone cells of eye)?

Attachment preview1) How are organelles distributed in this cell?  (i.e. are there more peroxisomes, less mitochondria, etc.)  Why do you see this?  Remember: “form follows function.”

2) In what type of tissue(s) and organ(s) would you find you find this cell?  What is its role there?

3) Each type of cell in the body only uses a small part of its genome to function.  For instance, red blood cells produce a lot of hemoglobin and are therefore “expressing” the alpha-hemoglobin and beta-hemoglobin genes.  Are there certain genes that are over-expressed (turned on) in this cell?  How do these genes help the cell’s function?
