If a plant cell in the phase of elongation increases its volume from 1000 µm³ to 1500 µm³ in one hour, what is the growth rate of the cell in µm³ per minute?
A
8.33 µm³/min
B
5 µm³/min
C
10 µm³/min
D
15 µm³/min
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The growth rate is calculated as the change in volume divided by the time. The volume increased by 500 µm³ over 60 minutes, so the growth rate is 500/60 = 8.33 µm³ per minute.
