1 answer:

8 0

The main reasons why cell division is important in organisms are reproduction, repair and growth. Cell division is necessary in order for life to continue.

The length of the cell cycle is important because it determines how quickly an organism can multiply. For single-celled organisms, this rate determines how quickly the organism can reproduce new, independent organisms. Most of the differences in cell cycle duration between species and cells are found in the duration of specific cell cycle phases. DNA replication, for example, generally proceeds faster the simpler the organisms. One reason for this trend is simply that prokaryotic have smaller genomes and not as much DNA to be replicated.

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

c. when you get to college you change the way you dress so that you "fit in" better--that is, so that people will like you more.

It is basically a difficult task , unsure of the answer, usually ambiguous , actually use others's response to form an opinion and actually believe what others say and internalize in. It is usually found in the crisis situation, when you don't know what to do and following th advice of expert. Examples include listening to fireman.

Hence in the given options, only c. when you get to college you change the way you dress so that you "fit in" better--that is, so that people will like you more. seems not to be example of Informaltiona social influence.
