Scripture Reading: Genesis 2:7
How many different types of cells are in the human body?
There are about 200 different types of cells in the body. Here are just a few examples:
red blood cells (erythrocytes)
skin cells
neurons (nerve cells)
fat cells
Humans are multicellular, complex organisms. The cells inside our bodies are “specialized.” This means that each type of cell performs a unique and special function. For this reason, each of the 200 different types of cells in the body has a different structure, size, shape, and function, and contains different organelles (any of a number of organized or specialized structures within a living cell.)
MAN - A COMPLEX BEING
"You have possessed me in my inward parts; you have covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise you; for I am awesomely and wonderfully made… My substance was not hidden from you, when I was made in secret…Your eyes did see my substance, yet being unformed; and in your Book (DNA) All is written." Psalms 139:13-16
