Best Answer

If you want to paint a place, carpet it, plant wheat on it, water it, mow it,

pave it, or cover it with cloth, then you need to know what its surface area is.

If you want to fill a place with water or beer, or pretty much fill any container

with anything, then you need to know what its volume is.

What happens to a cell's ratio of surface area to volume as the volume increases more rapidly than its surface area?

As volume increases surface area increase, but the higher the volume the less surface area in the ratio. For example. A cube 1mmx1mmx1mm has volume of 1mm3 surface area of 6mm2 which is a ration of 1:6 and a cube of 2mmx2mmx2mm has a volume of 8mm3 and surface area of 24mm2 which is a ratio of 1:3.


Why are volume and surface area alike?
