Summary Introduction

To review:

The advantage of small size to a cell.

Introduction:

Cells are the smallest units of life. Organisms can be made up of multiple cells as in the case of human beings, or they can be made up of a single cell like an amoeba. The remarkable feature of cells, whether they are in multicellular organisms or unicellular organism, is that they do not grow beyond a certain size and prefer to be smaller. They are only a few exceptions to this case, such as an ostrich egg.
