Why are groups of small cells better than one large cell at moving material in

Biology
1 answer:
kirill [66]3 years ago
7 0

The groups of small cells better than one large cell at moving material in  and out because they have a greater surface-to-volume ratio.

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

This happened so as these smaller cells, unlike bigger cells, can quickly and willingly enter and move through the membranes of other cell membranes and permeable coverings. For these smaller and mini cells, it is also important to penetrate and move effectively, distribute and transport products and materials such as nutrients, oxygen and waste across the body without requiring enough energy and saving less space. They are cheaper, more effective and use less room for simple reasons, and most notably deplete less resources.

There are choices for this question namely:

a. What is your name and where do you live?
b. How much poison did you swallow?
c. How long have you been feeling this way?
<span>d. What have you recently had to eat or drink?
</span>
The correct answer is "what have you recently had to eat or drink". This will confirm the suspicion by first ruling out potential reactive foods or drinks that may have caused a similar reaction (i.e. allergic reactions). If that is ruled out, then the probing about the history of intake of poison will come next in the interview.
