Which of the following limit cell size? select all of the answers that apply. a. ratio of surface area to volume b. rate of moving materials across the cell's membrane c. efficiency of using the information in a cell's dna d. efficiency of dna replication and cell division

The correct answer would be A. ratio of surface area to volume .

The cells are mostly spherical in shape.

The surface area of the sphere = 4πr²

The volume of the sphere = (4πr³)/3

Thus, the increase in size would increase the volume (r³) more as compared to the increase in surface area (r²).

The ratio of surface area to volume would decrease due to which the diffusion rate would not be efficient enough to distribute the essential elements throughout the volume of the cell.

The cell would not be able to survive.

This is the reason that cells have a small size.

answer; i believe that the correct answer is (lung);

affects the water bodies: excessive use of fertilizers causes eutrophication. the fertilizers which are used on plants affect the quality of land on which it is used, further causing erosion of soil. the fertilizers used on plants contain harmful chemical fumes which affect the environment.
