Why do leaves have a large surface area?
Leaves are broad, thin and flat to provide a large surface area, to absorb sunlight for photosynthesis. :)
What are the characteristics of respiratory surface?
large area
What organelle has a large amount of surface area?
The Alveoli
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.
Why is it important that the surface of the solar panel has a large area?
so it can get more sun
Why do radiators have a large surface area?
They have a large surface area so there is enough area for heat radiation.
How are nutrients absorbed by the fetus?
The nutrients are absorbed through the placenta by the foetus. The foetus gets the oxygen and nutrition from the mother. The blood of the mother and foetus comes very close to each other in the placenta. Both are not mixed up. They are separated by very thin membrane. The surface area of the contact is very large as compared to the size of placenta.
What orgon serves as a respiratory digestive organ for the fetus?
You have the organ called as placenta. The foetus gets the oxygen and nutrition from the mother. The blood of the mother and foetus comes very close to each other in the placenta. Both are not mixed up. They are separated by very thin membrane. The surface area of the contact is very large as compared to the size of placenta.

Your lungs provide a very large surface area for gas exchange.
Which will dissolve faster a substance with little surface area or the one with a large surface area?
One with a large surface area because the solvent will be able to dissolve more solute simultaneously.
Do stilts have a large surface area?

Why does a small pin sink wheras a large boat does not?

What are the characteristics of respiratory surface?
large area
What stars are cool and bright stars?
To be bright you need to be hot, close or have a large surface area. The brightest coolest stars are red super giants. They have such a large surface area, that even though their surface temperature is cool - in star terms - their large surface area makes them appear bright.
Are roots adapted to take in water because they have a small surface area?
No.Plant roots have large surface area,roots have root hairs to increase the surface area so that large amounts of water can be absorbed easily.
Why is it important that the gills of a crayfish give them a large surface area?
It is important that the gills of a crayfish give them a large surface area because it helps the crayfish to breathe. The bigger the surface area, the more oxygen in the crayfishes system.Ê
