Compare the rates of cell division occurring in your neurons and your hair follicles.

Biology
1 answer:
Firlakuza [10]3 years ago
5 0

Once you finish growing to adulthood, neurons stop dividing. Hair follicle cells constantly divide throughout your lifetime since they are constantly producing cells that become part of the hair itself as they die. So in an adult, the rate of cell division for neurons is zero (although there is some counter-evidence but it is certainly very low) while the hair follicle rate is much higher on the order of once every few days or faster.

Goryan [66]

Answer:

Because of the difference in surface area to volume ratio

Explanation:

Surface are to volume ratio is the area of an object that is exposed to the external environment (surface area), compared to the amount within an object (volume).

Therefore an elephant has a lower surface area to volume ratio than a mouse.

The smaller an object is the greater its surface area to volume ratio.

Small animals have much more surface area per mass than large animals. With so much surface area, they lose heat very quickly. So, a mouse, with a lot of surface area per mass, must spend a lot more energy to stay warm than a large animal.
