Mutations in certain components of the cell-cycle machinery in Drosophila melanogaster can be used to slow down the rate of progression through the cell cycle in the wing imaginal discs of the fly larvae, without a major effect on the rate of cell growth. As a result, compared to wild-type flies, the wing in the mutant flies would …

C) have the same size, but with a smaller number of relatively larger cells. D) have a smaller size with the same number of relatively smaller cells.
