Cell division is the process of the parent cell forming daughter cells. The decreased SA: V ratio does not affect the stages involved in cell division.
<h3>What is SA: V?</h3>
The surface area to volume ratio gives the size of the cell. The decrease in this ratio of the surface area and the volume causes the cell to divide or die. This ratio affects the rate of osmosis.
The decreased ratio also alters the signaling of the proteins and the cytoskeleton transport system of the cell, but the number of cell division phases is unaffected by the ratio.
Therefore, the cell division phases are unaffected by the SA: V ratio.
