    a) The table above helps us to understand why larger organisms need to become multicellular rather than just increase the size of their cells. The information in the table shows that as an organism gets larger in size‚ its surface area to volume ratio will decrease. However‚ the smaller the organism is‚ the greater its surface area to volume ratio will be. A small uncellular organism would have a large surface area in which diffusion (the movement of molecules) can take place. Diffusion is essential

    ingest. Genetically modified organisms are seen as being either unnatural and detrimental‚ or beneficial and healthier. Genetically modified organisms can be found in the majority of food products and crops. Genetic alteration in crops is when scientists clip a gene from the DNA of one plant and splice it into the DNA of another. (Smith 2). This alteration is what causes the characteristics in plants to be changed. The market for genetically modified organisms has increased dramatically with
