Two cells have the same volume but significantly different surface area values due to differences in their shapes. the cell with the greater surface area is likely to
a) be more spherical in shape compared to the other cell
b) have a very low metabolic rate compared to the other cell
c) have fewer microvilli than the other cell
d) take in nutrients more rapidly than the other cell

Explanation:

All cells share four common components: 1) a plasma membrane, an outer covering that separates the cell’s interior from its surrounding environment; 2) cytoplasm, consisting of a jelly-like region within the cell in which other cellular components are found; 3) DNA, the genetic material of the cell; and 4) ribosomes, particles that synthesize proteins. However, prokaryotes differ from eukaryotic cells in several ways.

A prokaryotic cell is a simple, single-celled (unicellular) organism that lacks a nucleus, or any other membrane-bound organelle. We will shortly come to see that this is significantly different in eukaryotes. Prokaryotic DNA is found in the central part of the cell: a darkened region called the nucleoid.

In nature, the relationship between form and function is apparent at all levels, including the level of the cell, and this will become clear as we explore eukaryotic cells. The principle “form follows function” is found in many contexts. For example, birds and fish have streamlined bodies that allow them to move quickly through the medium in which they live, be it air or water. It means that, in general, one can deduce the function of a structure by looking at its form, because the two are matched.

The answer on FLVS is take in nutrients more rapidly than the other cell. It might be D but they switch it up for different ppl so check 1st. My answer choice was D.

Explanation:

I took one for the team yw. 100 percent correct.

your answer should be c) enjoy!

i think the answer is b.
