C. a preoccupation with the idea of being sick

Explanation:

Hypochondriasis and pain disorder are two conditions that deviates from the normal human health. Hypochondriasis, also known as health anxiety, is a condition whereby an individual is fearfully worried about having a serious illness. On the other hand, pain disorder is a condition in which pain results in certain areas of an individual's body due to psychological disposition of such individual i.e. his/her mindset.

Based on the description of both conditions above, it can be observed that both hypochondriasis and pain disorder are as a result of a preoccupied mindset of being sick. One is worried PSYCHOLOGICALLY about being terribly ill (Hypochondriasis) while the other PSYCHOLOGICALLY induces pain on him/herself.

cells use diffusion to get substances in and out of themselves. that diffusion will occur across the cell membrane or the outer covering of the cell. because we are talking about the surface of the cell, surface area and volume are  important factors here. as a cell increases in size, its surface area and volume increase as well.  we call that the surface area to volume ratio (sa: vol).  but the catch is that  volume increases at a greater rate than surface  area. in other words, as a cell gets bigger, the sa: vol gets smaller. so a really small cell like bacteria is mostly cell membrane (surface) with very little contents (volume). a really big cell like an egg, is mostly insides with a super thin membrane. so what ends up happening is that the cell cannot efficiently diffuse all of the stuff it needs in/out to survive. therefore cell size is limited to about 100mm. so how do we make organisms bigger than 100mm? cells divide! by dividing and becoming multicellular, organisms are able to grow!   check out the diagrams i attached to see the effect of sa: vol. i hope this ! good luck!
