Which of the following is the
reason that an adult is larger than they were as a child?
A. all of their cells grew larger
B. their body contains more air and water
C. their body contains more cells than when they
were a child
It must be option C. Cells don’t change their size as you grow. While you grow, you increase in the number of them. The more “building blocks” aka cells, the larger you get.
