Natali [406]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Gap junctions in animals, like plasmodesmata in plants, connect the cytoplasm of two cells through dedicated and regulated channels. A gap junction is made of two hemichannels connected together leaving a channel that is 2-4 nm across -tranversing the two cells' cell membranes. The gap junctions allow for the cells to signal each other through allowing exchange of ions and other moelcules. One significance of gap junction is in enhancing communication between cells in the development of tissues and embryo.

The surface area/volume ratio is an important factor for one celled organisms. As a cell's volume grows, its surface area/volume
Stells [14]

Answer

Use Mitosis to divide and create daughter cells.

Explanations  

Single-celled organisms use mitosis to reproduce. Both growth and reproduction in unicellular organisms are mutually inclusive. When the cell’s volume grows, the ratio of surface area to volume decreases creating challenges in acquisition of nutrients because there will be too much cytoplasm for a given amount of nuclear material , thus the cell divides by mitosis to reproduce daughter cells and the process begins again.
