As a body cell grows, the ratio of _______ to volume _________. Before it grows to large, a cell will divide into two ________ cells. So that each new cell receives its own genetic instructions, the cell ________ or copies, all of its DNA.

Answer: As a body cell grows, the ratio of SURFACE AREA to volume INCREASES. Before it grows to large, a cell will divide into two DAUGHTER cells. So that each new cell receives its own genetic instructions, the cell REPLICATES or copies, all of its DNA.

Explanation:

As a body cell grows, the ratio of surface area to volume decreases. Before it grows to large, a cell will divide into two daughter cells. So that each new cell receives its own genetic instructions, the cell replicates or copies, all of its DNA.

The volume of a growing cell increases at a larger pace than the surface area. Hence the ratio of the surface area to the volume of the cell keeps decreasing. At a certain point, the signal to divide is given and this leads to the division of the cell into two daughter cells.

Just before the division, the genetic material of the cell is replicated and other important biomolecules are synthesized before the final call can be made.

Study the table about Earth’s interior.

A 4 column table with 5 rows. First column is unlabeled with entries: Crust, uppercase mantle, Lower mantle, Outer core, Inner core. Second column is labeled Thickness in kilometers with entries: 30, 720, 2,171, 2,259, 1,221. Third column is labeled Density in grams per centimeters cubed, divided into Top and Bottom columns. Top entries are: 2.2, 3.4, 4.4, 9.9, 12.8. Bottom entries are 2.9, 4.4, 5.6, 12.2, 13.1. Fourth column is labeled Types of Rock Found with entries: Silicic rocks, Peridotite, Magnesium and silicon oxides, Iron plus oxygen, Iron plus oxygen.

Which conclusion is supported by information in the table?

The mantle is thinner than the crust.
The core is the thickest of Earth’s layers.
The inner core is thicker than the outer core.
The mantle is the thinnest of Earth’s layers.
