Some viral infections can lead to the rupture of the lysosome membrane. Which prediction of the effect of this disruption of cellular compartmentalization is most likely correct?

A
Enzymes will be released that will specifically target the virus.

B
Cellular osmotic concentrations will change, preventing viral entry into the cell.

C
Hydrolytic enzymes will be released, which will cause cell death.

D
Intracellular digestion of organic materials will increase, which will increase the energy available to the cell for fighting the virus.

1. stay small single cells

BUT some cells, however, must be large, or at least, very long so...

2. add extensions
ex: microvilli in intestines, long thin neurons
[A neuron running down a giraffe's neck may be several meters long, but it's not shaped like a cube - instead, it's very long and thin. This gives the neuron a large surface area with little volume]

3. divide
ex: form tissues, specialization

notes:
Pseudopodia - extension of plasma with plasma membrane surrounding it (fake feet)
Compartmentalization = divides up cell I think

Which cell size is the most efficient at exchange materials with the environment?

Small cells are more efficient at exchanging materials than large cells because they have more surface area to work with in relation to their size.

Which cell is likely to be most effective in the exchange of materials?

Based on the data, which cell is likely to be most effective in the exchange of materials? Correct. The surface area to volume calculation is 6010=6. Of the four cells, this one has the highest ratio of surface area to volume and is likely to be most effective in the exchange of materials.

Which size cells are most efficient?

Small cells are most efficient at taking up oxy- gen and nutrients from the environment. (Note that they are also able to release waste carbon dioxide more efficiently.) 4.

Which cell would be most efficient at moving materials into and out of the cell?

Smaller cells are more efficient at transporting materials in and out and removing waste and also allows more diffusion to happen. When cells remain small, they have a high surface area to volume ratio, which means each cell membrane can efficiently move materials in and out of the cell.
