The Alveoli
What else can I help you with?
What organelle has a large amount of surface area?
The Alveoli
What feature of the inner membrane of the mitochondria allows this organelle to produced a great amount of energy?
a large surface area
What do alveoli have that enables them to absorb a large amount of oxygen?
A large surface area
What is the purpose of folds and wrinkles of membranes?
to provide a greater surface area in the organelle (increase surface area)
What feature of the inner membrane of the mitochondria allows this organelle to produce a great amount of energy?
The inner membrane of mitochondria is highly folded into structures called cristae, which provide a large surface area for the electron transport chain and ATP synthase enzymes to generate energy through oxidative phosphorylation. This increased surface area allows for more efficient production of ATP molecules, the cell's primary energy source.
What organelle has a lot of surface area?
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) has a lot of surface area due to its membrane structure, which folds and extends extensively throughout the cell. This large surface area allows for important cellular processes such as protein synthesis and lipid metabolism to occur efficiently.
What is the amount of surface called?
The amount of surface exposed is called surface area. It is the measurement of the total area that the surface of an object occupies.
Why does a small amount of water melt faster than a large amount of water?
A small amount of ice generally melts faster than a large amount of ice because of the difference in surface-area to volume ratios. Heat transfer with the surroundings occurs only at the boundaries of the ice. The rate of melting is thus directly proportional to the surface area. Additionally, the amount of ice to be melted is dependent on the volume. The more ice, the longer it takes to melt. Thus, a small cube of ice will melt faster because it has a greater surface area to volume ratio than a large block of ice.
What provides a large surface area for gas exchange?
Your lungs provide a very large surface area for gas exchange.
What term means amount of space on a surface?
surface area
It is possible to increase the amount of pressure by the amount of area where force is applied.?
