Question

In a fantasy world where organisms can augment diffusion by using magic to make molecules move faster and in a non-random manner, which of the following would we expect to find?

options: Large, complex multicellular organisms with sophisticated internal transport organs.

Small, simple multicellular organisms with systems for sharing nutrients between cells.

Large, complex multicellular organisms without any structures for bulk flow.

An absence of cell wall structures around unicellular organisms.

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

Large, complex multicellular organisms with sophisticated internal transport organs.

Note:

Every cell is in direct contact with the external environment, at least during phases of the life. so the process of diffusion will be slow.

no sign of cell wall here, because it is permeable.

the complexity of the organ creates some mechanism (like in human heart create pressure on blood to pump into the respective vessel, so it reaches the tissue area faster. and lungs partial pressure facilitate diffusion of gases)

so the complex sophisticated organ is a characteristic of multicellularity,
