What bodily system is responsible for releasing growth and other hormones?
Hormones belong to the endocrine system, which releases hormones from endocrine glands to maintain homeostasis in the body. There are many different types of hormones travelling through the body but each hormone is only designed to work on specific target cells.
What is one benefit to an organism of being large?
It takes less cells to do the job. If you cut yourself, then your body can send less cells to heal the wound compared to when the cells are smaller. You need more cells when you are smaller then when you have the larger cells.
Can smaller cells move materials faster than larger cells?
Generally, smaller cells can move materials faster than larger cells. This is because smaller cells have a higher surface area to volume ratio, allowing for more efficient exchange of materials with their surroundings. Additionally, smaller cells may have shorter distances for materials to travel within the cell.
Chemical substances secreted by cells into the extracellular fluids that regulate the metabolic function of other cells in the body are called?
hormones
Which is bigger a skin cell or blood cell?
This is a very vauge question. While most "germs" are smaller than skin cells (viruses and smaller bacteria) some bacteria can be larger than skin cells. Though most aren't larger than white blood cells, the body's defenders.
Why would engulfing these smaller prokaryotic cells be an advantage to the larger prokaryotic cells?
Engulfing smaller prokaryotic cells would provide the larger prokaryotic cells with a potential source of nutrients and energy, aiding in their survival and growth. It also prevents competition for resources and reduces predation pressure on the larger prokaryotic cells.
Liver cells respond to growth hormones by releasing hormones called?
Liver cells respond to growth hormones by releasing insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). This hormone plays a key role in promoting cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation, especially during times of growth and development.
Is Vacuoles smaller or larger in plant cells rather than animal cells?
It Is Larger!!
What chemicals help plant cells grow?
Growth promoting hormones
Are cells smaller thsn atoms?
Larger
Are white blood cells smaller than red blood cells?
No, they are larger.
Do small animals have smaller cells?
While small animals do tend to have smaller cells in comparison to larger animals, the relationship between an animal's size and its cell size is not always direct. Cell size can vary greatly within and among species, depending on various factors such as metabolic rate, growth rate, and specific cell functions.
Are virus's larger than cells?
No. They are over 1,000,000 times smaller than cells!!
What are smaller than cells but larger than atoms?
Molecules are smaller than cells but larger than atoms. They are composed of atoms bonded together to form a distinct structure.
Do smaller adult human have smaller cells than larger human or just more cells?
No, cell size doesn't change.
Are virus particles larger than cells?
No. They are over 1,000,000 times smaller than cells!!
Are bacterial cells larger then plant and animal cells?
No, bacteria have much smaller cells, generally, than plants and animals.
