Question

could a cell grow to a size of a football? Explain

Answer 1

$\huge\bold{Answer}$

=>Normally cell size is 1mm. As they have to less volume .

=>Neurons can be very long , perhaps up to a metre in a normal human being

=>In our eyes we have 0.1 mm long cell

=>Normal cell in a human being is longer as => 100 um

=> LARGEST SINGLE CELL => 5POUND.

$\huge\bold{Volume\:of\:neurons }$

Volume of neurones is not larger like a football .

size of football is bigger than a size of cell.

$\huge\bold{Hence,\:proved\:that\:a\:cell\: can't\: grow\:to\:a\:size\of\: football}$

Answer 2

Answer:

A cell cannot ever grow to the size of a football.

Explanation:

Different cells in the human, animal or plant body are of different sizes and shapes. But all cells of a specific type are of the same shape and size. This means there are specific regulatory mechanisms within the cells that dictate their cells as well as their shape.

Certain cells grow with time or age or under specific conditions, but the amount of increase in size is also limited. This is due to signalling pathways within the cell that determine their size. These pathways inform the cells when it should stop growing.
