B.
C.
D.
参考答案:
D
本题详细解析:
Choice D is correct because larger cells do not generally have fewer transport proteins. Choice D is also correct because as cell size increases, cytoplasmic volume increases, increasing the cell's metabolic demands which increases the cell’s need to exchange substances. Because cytoplasmic volume increases more rapidly than the surface area of the cell membrane, the surface area to volume ratio decreases. This means that as cell size increases, the cell membrane's surface area is soon unable to excrete waste and intake nutrients rapidly enough.
Choice A and C are incorrect as they include the statement that fewer transport proteins are present in the cell membranes of larger cells. Choice B is incorrect as it does not include the statement that increases in cytoplasmic volume increase metabolic demands
