Which of the following statements related to animal size is the most accurate? Multiple Choice As animals become larger, the body surface and body volume increase at approximately the same rate. A large animal has more surface area relative to its volume than does a small animal with the same shape. A large animal has less surface area relative to its volume than does a small animal with the same shape. As animals become smaller, the body surface and body volume decrease at approximately the same rate.
