Cells become specialized to perform specific functions. Skin cells have a protective outer layer to prevent water loss and damage while nerve cells transmit electrical signals over long distances through their branching extensions called axons and dendrites. Muscle cells contain specialized proteins that allow them to contract and relax, enabling movement.
