The cell's volume increases more rapidly.
Let's say you have a cube. When it's side have a length of one, the SA us 6 units while the volume is only one. By the time it's 10 by 10 by 10, the SA is 600 and the volume is 1,000.

Describe the Cell Cycle [Interphase, G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase]<br> describe them all please :)
Svet_ta [14]

<em>G1, S and G2 phases are all cumulatively referred to as interphase involving the growth of a cell and the replication of its DNA. Initially in G1 phase, the cell grows physically and increases the volume of both protein and organelles. In S phase, the cell copies its DNA to produce two sister chromatids and replicates its nucleosomes. Finally, G2 phase involves further cell growth and organisation of cellular contents. The S phase of a cell cycle occurs during interphase, before mitosis or meiosis, and is responsible for the synthesis or replication of DNA. In this way, the genetic material of a cell is doubled before it enters mitosis or meiosis, allowing there to be enough DNA to be split into daughter cells. The S phase only begins when the cell has passed the G1 checkpoint and has grown enough to contain double the DNA. S phase is halted by a protein called p16 until this happens.</em>

Microorganisms also exist in the fossil record, but they’re rarer than other types of fossils. The most common fossils form from
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Organisms decompose more quickly when they are in contact with oxygen. ... When an organism is buried quickly, there is less decay and the better the chance for it to be preserved. The hard parts of organisms, such as bones, shells, and teeth have a better chance of becoming fossils than do softer parts.
