Answer:
B. It can increase its surface area, which can allow it to be smaller.
Explanation
The surface area refers to the total area on the surface of a substance. The surface area of a cell increases as the cell increases in volume content.
A cell that is long and thin instead of round or square will have an increased surface area i.e. reduced volume, meaning that nutrients will move into that cell more readily. However, the surface area increases with a decrease in size, which means that since the shape (long and thin) allows it to have an increased surface area, it will get smaller.
