What is a good surface area to volume ratio of a cell

Biology
1 answer:
grin007 [14]3 years ago
5 0

The important point is that the surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. Thus, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume.

Hope I helped!
