Describe how the size of the prokaryotic cell matters. What would happen if the cell is too large? detailed answer please

Solution

The size of the prokaryotic cell matters because as the size of the cell increases result in increase in volume compared to surface area finally “lowering of surface area”. This is leading o difficult to exchange cellular constituents and cell materials in & out of cell finally difficult to attain internal homeostasis. On the other hand, there are no mitochondria to supply adequate energy to large prokaryotic cells result in inadequate cell ATP currency to sustain in harsh environments for its multiplication via cell division
