Recalling what you have learned about cells, you marvel at the ability of these tiny things to support their life functions. You

then remember that they could not easily get much bigger without drastic changes. Explain why cells are so small, considering the relationship between surface area and volume for objects of different sizes but similar shapes. Will mark brainliest

HEY THERE!!

As cells increase in size, the surface area and volume do not usually increase proportionally to length.It actually decrease. The greater the diameter of a single-celled organism, the lower the surface area to volume ratio. It is this relation that restricts the size of a particular cell.

HOPE IT HELPED YOU.

Hi!

Recalling what you have learned about cells, you marvel at the ability of these tiny things to support their life functions. You then remember that they could not easily get much bigger without drastic changes. Explain why cells are so small, considering the relationship between surface area and volume for objects of different sizes but similar shapes.

Answer:

The reason cells are so small is because the fact that they need to diffuse through other materials more efficiently.

From your genetics lab, what gram-positive bacterium was used during your experiment on genetic manipulation of a corn plant? lu

From your genetics lab, Agrobacterium tumefaciens gram-positive bacterium was used during your experiment on genetic manipulation of a corn plant

Rhizobiaceae is a family of bacteria that includes Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Gram-negative and aerobically growing, these bacteria don't produce endospores. The cells have one to six peritrichous flagella and are rod-shaped and motile. Cells can exist alone or in pairs and range in size from 0.6 to 1.0 m by 1.5 to 3.0 m.

Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a gram-negative bacterium that causes tumors in plants through horizontal gene transfer. In a variety of plant species, Agrobacterium tumefaciens has been widely exploited as the primary agent in the generation of transgenic plants. A soil phytopathogen called Agrobacterium tumefaciens naturally infects plant wound sites and causes the disease known as crown gall by the transfer of (T)-DNA.
