Answer:

The correct answer will be- cell division or act like unicellular organism.

Explanation:

The cell maintains its surface area to volume ratio to maintain its size. This ratio determines the basic cellular functions of a cell-like excretion and absorption.

If a cell grows beyond its cell size limit, then it will lead to a decrease in its surface area to volume ratio. This decrease in the ratio will affect the basic functions.  So cell will either modify itself to act like a unicellular organism or it could divide its genetic as well as its cytoplasmic content to form a new cell.

Thus, cell division or act like a unicellular organism is the correct answer.

Clear cutting has a similar effect as controlled burning of a forest. True False
zysi [14]

The correct answer is false and here is why:

Clear cutting refers to the cutting of trees, specifically all of the trees in one select area. Replanting is not done and this leads to deforestation.

Controlled burns have a completely different affect. They burn the under brush to help keep the soil rich with nutrients, plus they also help to prevent large crown fires that burn down whole forests from happening.

Clear cutting is a bad thing and controlled burns are a good limiter for a forest.

Can you think of a situation where a high temperature would not result in an increase in photosynthesis?
joja [24]

Nothing can photosynthesize in the night time even if the temperature goes up. But even then temperature has nothing to do with Photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities.
