Boundary cell

Ok kiddo, imagine you have a toy box filled with different types of toys. Now imagine that your toy box has a special line drawn in it that separates your toys from your sister's toys. That line is like a boundary that helps define whose toys are whose.

In our body, cells also have boundaries that help define where they belong. A boundary cell is a type of cell that helps define the boundary between different parts of our bodies. These cells can be found in various tissues, such as the skin or the lining of our organs.

Just like the line in your toy box, boundary cells create a physical barrier that separates different parts of the body. This barrier helps protect our organs and tissues from harmful things like bacteria or viruses.

Think of it like a fence around your house that keeps out animals and strangers. The boundary cells create a fence of sorts that keeps the bad things out and the good things in.

So in summary, boundary cells are special cells that create a boundary line in our body, like the line in your toy box or the fence around your house, that protects our organs and tissues from harmful things.
