Diffusion and Cell Size Introduction
Diffusion and Cell Size Introduction

... Why are cells so small? Most cells grow, but upon reaching a certain size, a cell will divide becoming two smaller cells. This is how multi-cellular organisms, like us, grow. But why do cells stop growing when they reach a certain size? Why does a cell divide and multiply rather than simply continue ...

Cell growth

The term cell growth is used in the contexts of cell development and cell division (reproduction). When used in the context of cell division, it refers to growth of cell populations, where a cell, known as the ""mother cell"", grows and divides to produce two ""daughter cells"" (M phase). When used in the context of cell development, the term refers to increase in cytoplasmic and organelle volume (G1 phase), as well as increase in genetic material (G2 phase) following the replication during S phase.
