Question

Which of the following statement is correct?

  1. Ratio of surface area to volume controls the cell size.
  2. Ratio of length to height controls the cell size.
  3. Ratio of surface area to size controls the cell size.
  4. None of these

hintHint:

Consider cell as a three dimensional unit.

The correct answer is: Ratio of surface area to volume controls the cell size.


    • Cells are the structural and functional unit of life
    • Cells are so small that cannot be seen with naked eyes
    • Cell size is small to enhance the exchange of materials in and out of the cell easily
    • Volume and surface volume determine the size of a cell
    • Smaller cells are effective for proper exchange of materials and maintaining metabolism
    • Large cells either contain larger nucleus to provide nourishment or grow protrusions to enhance the exchange of the necessary materials
