Cells are not all the same size. Take two cells that are both cuboidal in shape. One has a side length of 0.5 cm and
the other has a side length of 0.1 cm
Use the information presented to answer the questions,
What is the surface area of the 0.5 cm cell?
What is the volume of the 0.5 cm cell? |
Which cell has the smaller surface area to volume ratio? |
Which cell would be more efficient at maintaining homeostasis through diffusion?
