Question
Name the two cells which can change their shape?
✓
Answer
The two types of cells that are capable of changing their shape are:
- White blood cells (WBCs): The white blood cells (leukocytes) present in our blood they have the ability to change their shape. This helps them to kill germs by engulfing them. Unlike RBCs they possesses a nucleus.
- Amoeba: Amoeba can change its shape with the help of pseudopodia (false feet) that are projections of its body and adapt to their environment. During cold days, it wraps itself into a ball. The pseudopodia help the Amoeba to capture its food and move from one place to another.
