<span>The job of these envelope extensions is to increase the bacteria's surface area so they can absorb more nutrients and grow. This is especially important in an adverse environment that lacks a lot of resources.</span>

The correct answer is a.
The bacterium Caulobacter crescentus is an aquatic bacterium that forms long, tubular extensions of the cell membrane, called stalks. These stalks are thought to increase the advantage of the bacterium in adverse environments since it increases its ability to intake nutrients.

Look at the data tables below. Which would most likely produce a nonlinear graph? 
lora16 [44]
Table 3

A linear graph is one where there is a steady change in the value on the y-axis with a steady change in the value on the x-axis. The first table will produce a positive sloped straight line that has an increase of 5 in the value of distance with each increment in the time value.
Table 2 will produce a graph where there is a decrease of 2 in the value of distance with an increase in the value of time.
Table 4 will produce a graph where the line is horizontal; the y-value does not change with time.

Table 3 has a graph which has to move up and down to accommodate the decreasing and increasing values, so it will be non-linear.
