There could be several reasons.  Check the following:

- If the target image is displayed at a smaller Zoom setting than the source 
image, a.k.a. the image you're copying actually IS smaller than the target 
image you're pasting it to.

- If you have a selection active on the target image and use the "Paste Into" 
command (instead of just "Paste"), the pasted area will be masked (cropped) to 
that selection.

- If the copied image is a larger size canvas than the target image, you'll 
need to expand the canvas (Image > Fit Canvas to Layers is a good command to 
know about) otherwise the image you're copying will get cropped to the canvas 
edges.
