Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following is a method in which cell division solves problems for the cell?
A
Increases the surface area to volume ration.
B
Reduces the volume of the cell.
C
increases the availability of nutrients to entering a cell.
D
All of these are true.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cell division solves the problem of increasing size by reducing the volume of cytoplasm in the two daughter cells and dividing up the duplicated DNA and organelles, thereby increasing surface to volume ratio of the cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -There are two types of cell division: mitosis and meiosis. Most of the time when people refer to “cell division, ” they mean mitosis, the process of making new body cells. Meiosis is the type of cell division that creates egg and sperm cells. Mitosis is a fundamental process for life.

Detailed explanation-3: -Centriole helps in cell division They are put to work in both the process of mitosis and the process of meiosis. Before DNA replication, cells contain two centrioles. The older of the two centrioles is termed the mother centriole, the other the daughter.
