Cell size is limited by the size of the endomembrane system
Cell size is limited by___ the size of the endomembrane system surface to volume ratios the surface area of mitochondria in the cytoplasm the number of proteins within the plasma membrane
Solution
Cell size is limited by
Surface to volume ratios
As cell, grow larger in volume, their ability to diffuse compounds in and out of the cell decreases as well
There are four factors which limiting the size of cells include:
Surface area to volume ratio
Nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio
Fragility of cell membrane
Mechanical structures necessary to hold the cell together
