Cell Structure and Function
Cell Size
200

This part of the cell provides ATP

What is the Mitochondria?

200

This mathematical ratio is the primary reason why cells must remain small. 

What is Surface Area-To-Volume?

400

This jelly-like substance fills the cell and surrounds the organelles. 

What is cytoplasm?

400

As a cell increases in size, its volume grows proportionally to the cube of its radius, but its surface area only grows proportionally to this.

What is the Square of it Radius?

600

This type of transport uses energy and proteins to move molecules against their concentration gradient. 

What is Active Transport?

600

This happens to the Surface Area-To-Volume ratio as a cell grows larger.

What is Decreasing?

800

This process of a cell is when the cell 'self destructs', eliminating all harmful cells around it. 

What is Apoptosis? 

800

This extremely large cell needs a massive reserve of mitochondria and nutrients to support early embryonic growth. 

What is an Oocyte/Egg cell?

1000

This structure in a cell transports proteins to other parts of the cell

What is the Endoplasmic Reticulum?

1000

This is the equation for the surface area of a cube with a side length of S. 

What is 6s^2?
