These cells all vary in size, shape and diameter.
Explanation:
There are over 200 different types of cells within the human body.
Cells, although they range in size and shape, cannot become too large, or they may become unable to support their own functions, or could burst.
Most cells range between ten and fifteen micrometers in diameter, however, some cells, such as the human egg cell, are much larger than this, with a diameter of roughly 100 micrometers. The human egg cell is just barely visible to the naked eye.
Some of the longest cells include nerve cells, which can be as long as a meter, but are so thin, they are invisible to the naked eye.
