-cells are the basic unit of structure and function in an organism -all cells come from pre-existing cells |
|
Why are smaller cells are more efficient than larger cells?
|
takes less time to transport information and materials across the surface to the inside, where they are needed
|
|
Surface Area : Volume equation
|
SA/V
|
|
Surface Area=
|
6s^2 (s = side length)
|
|
Volume=
|
s^3 (s = side length)
