The option which best describes the cell cycle is the first one - cells spend more time in prophase than any other phase, where DNA condenses to prepare for division.
Prophase is the first phase in the cell cycle, which prepares everything and ensures that the division goes smoothly.

Correct answer: B). Cells spend the most time in interphase, where they grow and their DNA replicates.

The cell spends its most of the time in the interphase, during this phase of growth, cell continues to grow and carry out its metabolic activities which are necessary for regular growth and maintenance.

During this phase of the cell cycle, a lot of protein is synthesized in order to double its size. The important changes that occur in this phase include DNA duplication and division of chloroplast and mitochondria.

Hence, the correct answer would be option B.

Asi todas las células son muy pequeñas. ¿Qué limitaciones físicas y metabólicas determinan el tamaño celular? ¿ A qué problemas
N76 [4]

Answer:

- Limitación física: la relación superficie volumen es baja para un intercambio eficiente de sustancias con el medio

- Limitación metabólica: en principio no existen limitaciones metabólicas  

Explanation:

La membrana celular es una estructura fundamental para el funcionamiento celular, ya que de la membrana celular depende el intercambio de nutrientes y desechos por parte de la célula con su entorno (medio extracelular). En células muy grandes la relación entre la superficie cubierta por la membrana y el volumen celular es muy baja, lo cual dificulta el intercambio de compuestos (tanto nutrientes como desechos) con el medio extracelular. Por otro lado, los mecanismos metabólicos en principio no deberían verse afectados por el tamaño celular. Por ejemplo, los perfiles metabólicos de expresión génica son independientes del tamaño celular y están adaptados a diferentes tipos celulares, desde una célula huevo que es proporcionalmente varias veces más grande que un célula diferenciada la cual sin embargo no ha perdido la capacidad de dividirse, un ejemplo de esto son las células cancerosas derivadas de células epidérmicas diferenciadas las cuales poseen la capacidad de dividirse y de proliferar indiscriminadamente.

Effects of ecto-parasites of cattle​
erik [133]
Data have shown significant differences in nitrogen retention, blood cortisol concentrations, vital signs, water con- sumption, and urine production. Implications are that total energy balance is altered when an animal is exposed to ectoparasite infestations, thereby resulting in decreased productivity.
