Question

Which of the following best describes how the size and shape of a cell affect its ability to obtain nutrients from its surroundings through diffusion?
-A larger cell has more cellular structures to process nutrients and will absorb them more quickly.
-A larger cell has more volume to store nutrients and will acquire them more quickly.
-A smaller cell has more surface area relative to its volume and will absorb nutrients more quickly.
-A smaller cell has fewer organelles dependent upon nutrient uptake and will acquire them more quickly.

Answer 1

Answer:

A smaller cell has fewer organelles dependent upon nutrient uptake and will acquire them more quickly.

Explanation:

the larger the cell the more distance matter must travel within the cell. if the cell was larger there would be a waste of space in the cell and it would take longer for proteins and enzymes to travel about the cell.
