OBJECTIVESOBJECTIVES
•Define the cell cycle.
•Describe the four phases of the cell cycle.

•Describe the four phases of the cell cycle.
Cell GrowthCell Growth•Cells are limited in their
growth.
•The larger a cell grows the more difficult it is to get things in and out of it.
•If cells grow too large they would not be able to supply their own needs, and growth would come to a stop.

Why is a small cell more efficient than
a large cell?

It is easier for things like nutrients to get
in and out of the cell.

A macrophage, in (yellow), engulfs and consumes a bacterium (green). They help protect the body against infection.
T-lymphocytes are specialized white blood cells that identify and destroy invading organisms such as bacteria and viruses.
Erythrocytes, or red blood cells, are the primary
carriers of oxygen to the cells and tissues of the
body.
Thrombocytes, or platelets, are the smallest cellular
component of blood.

Human smooth muscle, also referred to as visceral or
involuntary muscle, is composed of slender, spindle-
shaped cells.
