Why are cells so small?

Biology
1 answer:
spin [16.1K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Why are cells small? because they can absorb nutrients much more efficiently. Because they are smaller they can efficiently absorb enough food. When a cell doubles in size the volume increases much more then the surface area, which is why large cells cannot receive enough food efficiently for their volume.

Hope this helped :)

What happens as a result of osmosis when an animal cell containing 1% sugar is placed in pure water
Mama L [17]

The process of osmosis is the movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.

If 1% sugar solution is placed in pure water, then there would be a higher concentration of water molecules outside the cell compared to inside the cell. The solution outside the cell would be hypo-tonic (containing fewer solute molecules than inside the cell). Water will move into the cell by inward osmosis and the cell would then swell.
