What else can I help you with?
Why is it advantages for a cell to grow only to a certain size and then divide into two smaller cells?
Cellular division is the cellular equivalent of reproduction. It is how cells reproduce.
Why do all cells divide?
Cells are limited by size. They cannot grow beyond a certain extent. This is why the cells multiply to form the various organs of the body.
Do your Cells grow as you grow?
yes, cells grow to an enlarged size and divide into two small cells (which each enlarge and divide as well). but the larger cells get, the more difficult it is for them to function and operate, so they remain within certain size boundaries, getting large enough to divide and halving, large enough to divide and halving.
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
Why is it advantageous for a cell to grow only to a certain size and then divide into two smaller cells?
Smaller cells work more efficiently because their "supply lines" are short.
What do animal cells do to create new cells?
They grow twice the size, then divide into two.
Explain why cells can only grow to a limited size?
Cells will only grow to a certain size. If a cell gets too big, it is much harder for the cell to transport food and wastes in and out of the cell fro the nucleus. so, to avoid this, the cell divides.
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 cells in an embryo grow no larger than a certain size before they divide?
Cells in an embryo grow no larger than a certain size before they divide because as the cell grows, its surface area to volume ratio decreases. This leads to difficulties in nutrient exchange and waste removal, hindering the cell's ability to function properly. Dividing into smaller cells helps maintain an optimal surface area to volume ratio for efficient cellular processes.
Which process allows a mammal to continue to grow in size?
mitosis of body cells
What happens to individual cells when an organism grows?
They divide and grow back to their normal size, so there are two cells of the same size with exactly the same DNA.
What is part of the human body don't grow?
Once fully developed, certain parts of the human body, such as the number of fat cells and the length of bones, do not grow in size. However, throughout life, skin and hair continue to show growth and regeneration.
