If that cell doubled its side length to 4 micrometres, what would the ratio become?

  • A.1.5 to 1
  • B.3 to 1
  • C.6 to 1
  • D.0.5 to 1

Answer: A

Six divided by the new side length of 4 gives 1.5. Doubling the size therefore halves the surface available for each unit of volume, which is precisely the constraint that keeps cells small and forces large organisms to be multicellular.
