Answer:

Yes, there are some big cells present in the body such as white blood cells and microvilli in the small intestine.

Step-by-step explanation:

White blood cells have big size which enables them to produce more RNA and proteins which are needed by the cell. Microvilli in small intestine also have a big size which enables it to absorb more nutrients from the food present in small intestine and add these nutrients to the blood which is used by the body.
