Major job of cell membrane is to maintain Major job of cell membrane is to maintain the cell’s environment – establish the cell’s environment – establish homeostasis homeostasis
Surface Area to Volume RatioSurface Area to Volume Ratio
Surface area acts as limiting factor in size Surface area acts as limiting factor in size of cell because is a two dimentional unitof cell because is a two dimentional unit
Volume is three dimentional, so increases Volume is three dimentional, so increases more quickly than the surface area can more quickly than the surface area can accomodateaccomodate
