How one cell becomes two in the body?
Yes because your body needs more cells when it gets larger to protect your body.
Why can a cell get only so large?
There is a surface area to volume ratio, as a cell gets larger it becomes harder and harder to transport materials inand out of the cell. There has to be enough surface area to supply the cell with all of the materials that it needs for survival.
When does the chest cavity become larger?
When you breath in, it becomes larger. Conversely, it is smaller when you exhale.
How is a seed formed after pollination has taken place?
After successful fertilization, the single diploid cell divides, and each of those cells divide, and on and on until the fertilized egg cell develops into and embryo
Where do lysosomes go when cell get dies?
it becomes new cell
When the cell becomes larger what is able to function efficiently?
No. The larger the cell becomes the more difficult the nutrients can travel around.
Another name for cell division is the phase?
The larger cell becomes, the efficiently it is able to function
How can you write the steps of mitosis in a silly sentence?
The larger a cell becomes, the more demands the cell places on its DNA
Why is it helpful for cells to divide?
The larger a cell becomes, the more demands it places on its DNA . It also becomes more difficult for the cell to move nutrients and oxygen in, and waste products out. The ratio of surface area to volume becomes too small.
Is the surface-area-to-volume ratio of a small cell less than that of a larger cell?
As a cell becomes larger the surface area to volume ratio gets smaller. The volume increases by the square of the surface area. That is the main reason that one celled organisms are small.

As a cell becomes larger what happens to its surface area and volume?
The Volume increases faster than the Surface Area
What does it mean when a cell becomes specialised for a different role?
This cell becomes a part of permanent tissue
Is a cell larger than a organelle?
No an organelle is a structure within a cell. It cannot be larger than the cell it is inside of.
Which cell is larger-a plant cell or animal cell?
A plant cell
