Cells differ in number as well as in structure as the function they perform. Size of different cells are different. Like RBCs have 7 micro metre whereas the nerve cell is longest cell more tha RBCs. Somatic cells are present for growth of organisms whereas genes for different species are different hence determine different growths. All cells are not of same shape or size.
