Prokaryotic cells, found only in bacteria and archaebacteria, are some of the smallest cells, ranging in size from 1 micron to 30 microns (0.0001 mm to 0.003 mm) in diameter.

Are vaculoes in animal cells?

No, vacuoles are typically found in plant cells. However, animal cells may contain small vacuoles, especially in specialized cell types such as white blood cells or adipocytes. These vacuoles usually serve specific functions within the cell.


What are two types of virisus?

Two types of viruses are DNA viruses, which have genetic material made of DNA, and RNA viruses, which have genetic material made of RNA. DNA viruses typically replicate in the host cell's nucleus, while RNA viruses typically replicate in the host cell's cytoplasm.


Why is it easier to study cell differentiation in a small organism than in larger more complex organisms?

Studying cell differentiation in small organisms is easier because they have fewer cell types and simpler development processes. In larger organisms, there are more cell types and complex interactions, making it harder to track and understand how cells differentiate. Small organisms also have shorter lifespans, allowing researchers to observe entire developmental processes more quickly.


What is small cell of human body?

A small cell in the human body is a cell that is typically compact in size and carries out specific functions within the body. These cells can vary in structure and function, such as red blood cells for oxygen transport or neurons for transmitting signals in the nervous system.


What is one way that members of archaebacteria are different from eubacteria?

They have different types of cell walls and cell membranes.

Why does a cell have to be small?

becuase small is a lot...! it is not always the same size (in micrometers), the size varies from different cell types in the same species (human; sperm cells & neuron are longer!). Meantime, egg what we eat is also a cell! trust me!
