Cell Size

Why do we want a cell to have a large surface area?


Why do we not want a cell to have a large volume?

  1. 1.so u can old more things inside and let more things in and out.

    2.because there if there more things inside then it will be harder for other stuff to get out

  2. 1. because it has more protein coming in and waist going out

    2. so more proteins come out.

  3. larger surface is good because every thing has room to move a round and do what they are suppose to do and with a lager volume ok preferring back to the jello in the pool when u try to dive in and try to go through the jello into the middle of the pool and if u have a smaller volume it would be easier to get in to the middle of the pool

  4. 1. more old nutreints come out

    2.THINGS come in and out☢

  5. Surface area is very important to cell function because everything the cell needs passes through the cell membrane. As cells decrease in size so do their vollumes however, surface area decreases at a much slower rate. As a result small cells have more than enough surface area to take in the nutrients needed to support the volume of the cell.

  6. 1. it have more waist going out also proteins coming



    2. proteins exiting out of the cell

  7. 1.It would take the protein coming in than out and waist is more easier coming out.
    2.Its harder for the proteins coming out because is more harder than a smaller than a cell wall.

  8. You want the cell to have a large surface area so you can keep putting stuff inside the cell its like a human body. You want a cell to have a good amount of volume so you can be full.

  9. 1. The cell can hold more things and that so it can do more work.

    2. it wont be easy for other cells to get pass

  10. to let things come in and out and stores more proteins

  11. Because if it has a bigger surface area it can carry more proteins and such faster but if it has more volume it won't make it that fast

  12. - nutrients can come in and waste can go out.

    - it wont be easy for other nutrients can go out.
