-Nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio

-The fragility of the cell membrane

-Structures of the cell

Answer 2

Factors limiting the size of cells include:

1.Surface area to volume ratio. (surface area / volume)

2.Nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio.

3.Fragility of cell membrane.

4.Mechanical structures necessary to hold the cell together (and the contents of the cell in place)
