Evaluation Microscope Cellular Biology Lessons: Structure & Function Chemistry Growth & Division Diversity Activities Quiz Cell Diversity Webster's Dictionary defines diversity as variety. The old saying states that "variety is the spice of life." Diversity is everywhere we look. Flowers have numerous petal formations. Insects come in a multitude of shapes, sizes and colors. Common fungi have minute differences. These examples demonstrate diversity. The cells within these and other organisms have different characteristics. The cells that create a centipede will not necessarily have the same form or function as the cells that create a sea horse. Furthermore, the cells of a rose have different characteristics than the cells of a toad.
