What are the characteristics of respiratory surface?
large area
What organelle has a large amount of surface area?

How does surface area to volume ratio affects an organism?
If the surface area of the organism is small, then there is no problem with getting all the oxygen needed. If the surface area of the organism is large, therefore a special respiratory surface is needed. An example is lungs, gills. The ratio of surface area to volume in a small organism is greater than the ratio in a large organism.
What is a large-scale map?
A large scale map shows you the distanct between things on a map and on the real eaths surface.
Why is a soldier who suffers from severe traumatic burns more susceptible to hypothermia?
Anyone (not only the armed forces) suffering from large areas damaged by burns, lose the natural protection of the skin affected by the burn (which includes damaged muscle and underlying tissue). Fluid loss is one result, and must be replaced. Also, shock can also bring on hypothermia, which is dangerously loss of body heat.

this is funny cause i took an online test with this question
Is sulfuric acid harmful?
Yes. Sulfuric acid is highly corrosive and can cause severe chemical burns. It can cause permanent blindness is if enters the eyes. Many of its reactions release large amounts of heat as well.
