Using the data from the model, evaluate the hypothesis that cells shaped like rectangular solids 1 and 2 are better suited for s
low metabolism and the long‑term storage of energy‑containing molecules than are cells shaped like rectangular solids 4 and 5 .
1 answer:
Answer:
The cells 1 and 2 have a less surface area contacting the environment per its volume unit which in turn makes them loose energy lower to the environment and is metabolically less active.
Explanation:
Solution
Since cells 1 and 2 have less surface area contacting the environment per unit volume which makes them to loose lower energy to the environment and are therefore less active metabolically.
Thus they are better suited for a long term storage of energy having molecules than cells 4 and 5.

In the energy pyramid for any given ecosystem, the most energy available is at the bottom and the least energy available is at the top.
At the bottom of the energy pyramid are the producers (plants and other photosynthetic organisms). The first group of organisms that consume the producers are called the primary consumers (herbivores). The next group of consumers are the secondary consumers, and then the tertiary consumers and quaternary consumers.
Correct Answer: B
