Cell Growth and Division
Name____________________
1. Why are cells small, rather than large?
a.
b.
2. When an organism “grows” what is happening to the cells?
3. Why do cells divide?
a.
b.
4. Are the cells in an adult human the same size as an infant? Explain.
5. True or false? Volume increases more rapidly than surface area, causing the
surface area to volume ratio to decrease. (p.242)
6. True or false? More surface area than volume, or a greater surface area to
volume ratio, leads to more efficient exchange of nutrients into and out of the
cell.
7 – 16. Complete the cell cycle diagram below. (See p.245 for help)
Label the following phases: Interphase ( including, G1, S, G2); Mitosis
