| As a cell becomes larger, its volume increases _____ than its surface area. | faster |
| As a cell becomes larger, its surface area increases _____ than its volume. | slower |
| The rate at which a cell produces waste is determined by its ____. | volume |
| The rate at which a cell can get rid of waste is determined by its ____. | surface area |
| The rate at which a cell can take in nutrients is determined by its ____. | surface area |
| The amount of nutrients that a cell needs is determined by its ___. | volume |
| Besides the problem of taking in nutrients and getting rid of waste, what is another problem that cells face when they get too big? | DNA overload (Basically, the DNA is like a library and when cells get bigger, its like a city getting bigger wiithout increasing the number or size of its libraries) |
What is the color of the curve that would represent volume in a graph of volume versus surface area as cells grow?,  | the red curve, |
