What happens to the ratio of surface area to volume as the cell size increases without the

cell changing shape?


2. What does a surface area/volume ratio of 6:1 mean for the cell’s ability to get the

materials it needs that move across its surface?


3. What does a surface area/volume ratio of 3:1 mean for a cell’s ability to get materials

across its membrane, compared to the cell with a ratio of 6:1?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.   As the cell size increases, the ratio of surface area to volume DECREASES

2.   It depends on the unit of the ratio 6:1. If it is in cm−1, then it means that it is similar to a cell of size 1 cm^3,  which is normally too big to get materials from the surface .

3.  A Small cell has a large surface area/volume ratio and therefore can exchange molecules with it's external environment rapidly. So, Here cell with ratio 6:1 is smaller and have ability to better transportation across it's membrane as compared to other cell with ratio 3:1
