How maggots have the surface area?
Maggots have a shape which is defined by their skin. The total area of the skin is the maggot's surface area.
What is the relationship between the surface area of the skin amount and heat lost through the skin?
the difference between this is that surface area
What organ has the greater surface area?
skin
What is the area of the lungs compared to the skin?
The surface area of the lungs is significantly larger than that of the skin. The total surface area of the lungs is estimated to be around 70 square meters, primarily due to the extensive network of alveoli for gas exchange. In contrast, the average surface area of human skin is about 1.5 to 2 square meters. This means the lungs have a surface area many times greater than that of the skin.
Why are volume and surface area alike?
Think of surface area as your skin and volume as all the contents inside your body. So they relate because surface area can hold volume or volume could be inside the surface area.
Intestine surface area does it exceed that of skin?
yes. by alot.
Largest human organ?
The skin is the largest by surface area.
Name one organ in your body which has a large surface area?
The skin is an organ in the body that has a large surface area as it covers the entire external surface of the body.
How do you find the surface area of your skin?
1.52 square metters is the average
Why is surface area of alveoli in lungs is greater than the surface area of the skin?
The surface area of the alveoli is where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged across membranes. A large surface area enables a greater amount of gas transfer. The skin has two main functions: one is holding all our bits in one place and the other is to maintain body temerature. In the latter role, a large surface area is good for cooling the body but bad for keeping warm. So it is a compromise.
What is the human body's biggest organ measured by surface area?
The largest organ is your skin.
How does your body adopt surface area to volume ratio to help exchange gases-?
The skin surface is not large enough for big creatures such as humans; therefore we have structures in our lungs that greatly increase the surface area.
