<h2>Answer:</h2>

C. The cell's ability to feed enough

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The surface area to volume ratio of a cell affects the efficiency of diffusion which means that it takes longer for substances to get to the center of the cell. In simpler words, cells need to be able to obtain nutrients from their environment as well as to eliminate waste from themselves so increasing the size of a cell would increase its surface area and thus its demand for nutrients increases.

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Animals in space originally served to test the survivability of spaceflight, before human spaceflights were attempted. Later, other animals were flown to investigate various biological processes and the effects microgravity and space flight might have on them. Bioastronautics is an area of bioengineering research which spans the study and support of life in space.

Explanation:

Example 1: Albert II became the first monkey in space on June 4, 1949. He reached an altitude of 83 miles (134 km), but died on impact when the parachute failed. A previous monkey, Albert I, died when the V-2 rocket failed before reaching peak altitude. Two other monkeys, Albert III and IV, also died when their rockets failed.

Example 2:A mouse launched on Aug. 15, 1950, attained an altitude of 85 miles (137 km), but died when the rocket disintegrated due to parachute failure. Several other mice were launched during the 1950s.

Example 3 (and the most important example): Laika became the first living being to orbit the Earth on Sputnik 2, Nov. 3, 1957. She died several hours into the flight from stress and heat.

Which of the following is the correct order of steps in transmission between two neurons?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Firstly, an action potential travels down to an axon and reaches the presynaptic membrane. After that synaptic vesicles move to and bind with the presynaptic membrane. Than, neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft. In the next step, receptors on the postsynaptic membrane bind the neurotransmitters. In the last step, binding neurotransmitters cause excitation or inhibition.
