Answer:

The correct answer will be- to maintain the surface area to volume which helps organism stay alive.

Step-by-step explanation:

The larger organism is made up of many cells as the cell needs resources and the movement of these resources takes place through cell surface so a large surface area will favor the cell growth.

when a cell grows its requirement for sorceresses also increases which will disturb the cytoplasmic content and will cause the cell to change its volume. so both surface area to volume plays an important role in cell growth and function.

If cell grows oversize, then the cell will die which poses a threat to size of the cells thus, the small size of the cell help maintain the amount of surface area compared to volume and allows us to be alive.

Cell division occurs in all living organisms. This is known as mitosis.

The advantages of a larger organisms to subdivide themselves into smaller cells is that as all organisms grow, some of their cells die or get damaged with time and need replacements. So,it divides into smaller cells because when a cell becomes large, it demands more of cell places of its DNA. If the cell grows too large, it will have trouble moving enough nutrients and wastes across the cell membrane. So to grow properly the cells need to be divided.
