What 3 things limit cell size?
DNA, Diffusion, and Surface Area to Volume Ratio.
What happens to the surface area to volume ratio when folds are made in a cell's outer membrane?
The surface area to volume ratio will increase
How does surface to volume ratio relate to the size of a cell?
As the cell gets bigger, the surface to volume ratio gets smaller.
A living cell is not a simple geometric shape like a sphere or a cube. What sort of weird cell shape might increase the ratio of surface area to volume Would you be able to test this more complex shap?

How does a cell's ratio of surface area to volume change as the cell grows larger?
As the cell grows larger the ratio of surface area to volume increases. Larger cell = more volume for the amount surface area.
Why does a sphere have the lowest surface area to volume ratio?
because the surface area is spread out over the volume of mass
How can you obtain the cells ratio of surface area to volume?
If the cell has a simple geometric shape, there are formulae that can be used. Otherwise you need to measure the surface area and the volume.
Why is a sphere one of the strongest shapes to use in construction?
It has the lowest ratio of surface area to volume.
How do you calculate the surface-area-to-volume-ratio?
The surface-area-to-volume ratio may be calculated as follows: -- Find the surface area of the shape. -- Find the volume of the shape. -- Divide the surface area by the volume. The quotient is the surface-area-to-volume ratio.
How can you obtain a cell's ratio of surface area to volume?
To obtain the ratio of surface area to volume, divide the surface area by the volume.
Consider the following geometric solids. A sphere with a ratio of surface area to volume equal to 0.3 m-1. A right circular cylinder with a ratio of surface area to volume equal to 2.1 m-1. What resul?
The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder.
What Consider the following geometric solids a sphere with a ratio of surface area to volume equal 0.08m-1 a right circular cirlinder with a ratio of surface area to volume equal 2.1 m-1 APEX?
The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder (APEX)

What happens to the surface area to volume ratio when folds are made in a cell's outer membrane?
The surface area to volume ratio will increase
Consider the following geometric solids. a sphere with a ratio of surface area to volume equal to 0.15 m-1 a right circular cylinder with a ratio of surface area to volume equal 2.2 m-1 what results w?
C- The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder
How can you find a cell's survace area to volume ratio?
to obtain the ratio of surface area to volume, divide the surface area by the volume.
Which statements about the ratio of cell surface area to cell volume is are correct?
Larger cells will have a greater surface area-to-volume.
