What is the relationship between cell surface area and cell volume?

• Cell surface area and cell volume are not related.

• Cell surface area and cell volume are inversely proportional.

• As a cell grows, its surface area to volume ratio decreases.

• As a cell grows, its surface area to volume ratio increases.
