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.
