Question

Part B What are the strengths and weaknesses of the cell model?

Answer 1

The strengths of the cell model are :

easy to understand and

All cell processes are represented/shown

The weakness of cell model is :

The cell model does not represent the cell accurately (organelles are not shown )

RNAs involved in transcription are not shown in the cell model as well

The cell model is a visual representation of a biological cell as entities of their own. Some strengths of the cell model is that it is easy to understand when studied because most of the processes of cell formation are clearly shown in the model while some of the weakness that a cell model possesses are that all the organelles of the cell are not represented (this makes the cell model an inaccurate representation) also the RNA involved in transcription are not shown in the cell model.

Hence, we conclude that the weakness and strengths of the cell model are an inaccurate representation of the cell, absence of RNAs, easy to understand and proper representation of cell processes.
