because if a cell is too large, it takes more DNA, work, and maintenance to keep it living, whereas if it is a small cell, transport is quicker and DNA, work, and maintenance are quicker and takes less effort than large cells
* it is also better for cells to have a larger surface area: volume ratio so that transport is easier

Why can small cells exchange substance readily than large cells?
why can small cells exchange substances more readily than large cells?
Does small animals have small cells?

Are prokaryotic cells small?
yes they are small and they have no nucleus unlike eukaryotic cells that do have a nucleus and are large.

Why can small cells exchange subtances more readily than large cells?
Small cells have higher surface area to volume ratio than larger cells.
What is the three types of small particles?

What is small in animal cells but large in plant cells?
Vacuoles are small in animal cells but large in plant cells. They play a role in maintaining turgor pressure in plant cells and storing water, ions, and nutrients. In animal cells, vacuoles are smaller and more specialized in function.
What is an example of blood cells?
