To have better control of metabolic activities in living cells there is optimum cytoplasm to nucleus size ratio called C/N ratio. To maintain this proportion the cells can not grow bigger than they are. However, to perform special functions cells may be of variable size. For example, fiber cells are very large and elongated, vessels are broader and perforated.
What else can I help you with?
Growth hormones can make cells grow larger or smaller?
Growth hormones primarily signal for cells to grow larger and divide, which can result in overall tissue growth. They do not directly cause cells to shrink or decrease in size.
Why do the cells in an embryo grow no larger than a certain size before they divide?
If get to larger then the nutrients cant pass through
Are mold cells bigger than bacteria cells?
Yes, mold cells are bigger than bacteria cells. They typically are around 3x larger than bacteria cells and they take up more space.
Why cant ferns grow taller than mosses?
Because mosses rely on diffusion to transport water up the cells and do not have the vessels found in plant cells that allow water to be carried upwards.
Does a big dog have bigger cells than a small dog?
A larger dog may have MORE cells than a smaller dog but they are not bigger.
Which Are Bigger Prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells?
Eukaryotic cells are generally larger than prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have a more complex structure with membrane-bound organelles like the nucleus, while prokaryotic cells lack these organelles. This allows eukaryotic cells to grow larger in size.
Are bacterial cells bigger than plant or animal cells?
Yep.
Why are egg cells bigger than the animal cells?
aise hi
Is a bacterium bigger than an animal cell?
Animal cells are bigger I think.
Do animal and plant cells have vacuoles?
they both have vacuoles. plant cells have bigger vacuoles then animal cells
Are cells bigger than atoms?
Yes, cells are bigger than atoms. Cells are made up of many atoms and are considered the basic building blocks of living organisms, while atoms are the basic unit of matter. The size difference between cells and atoms is significant, with cells typically being thousands of times larger than individual atoms.
Are the blood cells of an elephant bigger than those of a mosquito?
An elephant is significantly bigger than a mosquito in many ways. This also includes their blood cells, as a mosquito's blood cells are smaller.
