provides each daughter cell with its own copy of DNA
|
|
|
Increases the mass of the original cell
|
|
|
increases surface area to volume ratio
|
|
|
reduces the volume of each cell
|
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: -Cell division increases the mass of the original cell. A cell’s chromosomes are replicated during interphase. Cell division solves the problem of cell growth by increasing cell volume.
