um

cretion

cause it
provides energy for cellu-
lar work when the termi-
nal, high-energy bond is
broken.

cause
the number of electrons
equals the number of pro-
tons.
32.

smooth muscle tissue and
cardiac muscle tissue
33.
Bone cells and muscle cells differ in structure
and function because
each expresses a different
subset of genes.
