Why aren't all cells exactly alike?

The way a cell looks and behaves depends on which genes are expressed. This means that if a certain set of genes are being transcribed and translated, the cell taken on a certain role (for example an epithelial cell). If a different set of genes are being expressed, the cell takes on a different role (like a brain cell for example) It is important to remember that these sets of genes that are being expressed do not change over time. This means an epithelial cell can only give rise to epithelial daughter cells and not a different cell type


Your right cheek is bigger than my left cheek?

Most humans have differences in the sizes of body parts, one leg a bit longer, one arm a bit bigger, facial parts different in size. It's perfectly normal. But if you have noticed it getting bigger, then you could have a problem that you need to see a doctor about.


Do all cells come from cells that exists?

All cells come from other cells because we all started out as a single fertilized egg. As we under go miosis, the single cell divides and divides. The cells split and reproduces the DNA nad chromosomes and splits. The process goes on and on and never stops.


How big are cells?

Cells vary in sizes, but the size of an average cell may be 10-150 Microns. Microns are 1/1,000 of 1 mm, which is VERY small. Some cells can get all the way down to nanometers which are 10x smaller than a micron. Microns can be abbreviated as mu

Are cells in many celled organism's the same size in every part of the organism?

No, although cells undergo mitosis and form two identical cells, differentiation over time and fusion of cells greatly varies the cell shapes and sizes throughout the different cell types. Muscle cells are fused and very long (some being up to 1m in a human), neurons have long axons and dendrites while epithelial (skin) cells are small and squashed. Even within the same organ cells can vary greatly (such as the liver, containing varieties of differing cells such as Kupffer, Biliary epithelial sinusoidal epithelial and stellate).
