3.2 size: generally, it is about 1-5 nm in width, up to 10 nm in height, and about 5-20 nm in length, up to 50 nm in height, which is several times to dozens of times larger than bacteria.
3.3 structure: yeast has no flagella and cannot swim.Similar to higher organisms, eukaryotes.However, there is no golgi body common in higher plant and animal species, and it has cell wall, cell membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, vacuole, mitochondria, and some have microbodies.
