D. Ratio of Surface Area to D. Ratio of Surface Area to Volume Volume
D. Ratio of Surface Area to D. Ratio of Surface Area to Volume Volume
As the length of cell increases, volume increases faster surface area
(cm3 compared to cm2)
HIGH ratio desired: quick movement of materials
Ex: 6000/1 is better than 2/1

C. Checkpoints
G1 Checkpoint: DNA to be replicated is healthy; cell size
G2 Checkpoint: Checks that DNA that was replicated is healthy; rest of cell ready for division
M checkpoint:Chromosomes are properly attached to the spindle fibers.
What happens if the cell cannot pass through
the checkpoint?
A)Repair the damage
OR
B) Self-destruct: APOPTOSIS
(Programmed Cell Death)
There are proteins in the cell that regulate these processes and determine which way the cell will go.
