Presentation Transcript

  1. Maximum Cell Size

  2. Nutrients (food) CO2 Waste

  3. More food/waste transport

  4. Eukaryotes are bigger than Prokaryotes. How did early Eukaryotes increase their cell membrane surface area so they could grow bigger?

  5. Infolding the cell membrane increased surface area.

  6. Later evolved into the endoplasmic reticulum for better transport within the cell.
