Question 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5

1. Describe three advantages of 1000 small cells (each Imm filling a space of 1 cubic centimeter (lem over one large cell living in the same amount of space Hint: what he surface area to volume ratio for individual cells 2. Make a chart to compare bacterial cells, plant cells, and animal cells in 5 ways 3, List seven organelles, excluding the cytoskeleton and organelles inside the mucleus, and give a function of each. Describe the cytoskeleton of the cell and explain how it functions in cellular movement. Be specific. Complete this table: Selectivity (type of Concentration Energy Gradient along Requirement against transported.

Solution

(1)the surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. Smaller cells are much more efficient in absorbing nutrients since they have larger surface area to the volume ratio. Thus, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, its surface area is too small to supply its raw materials to its volume.
