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.
What is a large-scale map?
A large scale map shows you the distanct between things on a map and on the real eaths surface.
Functions affected by burns over large areas of the body?
Burns over large areas of the body can affect multiple functions, including: Temperature regulation: Extensive burns can impair the body's ability to regulate temperature, leading to hypothermia or hyperthermia. Skin integrity: Large burns can compromise the skin's barrier function, increasing the risk of infections and fluid loss. Mobility: Severe burns can affect joint mobility and cause contractures due to scarring, impacting a person's ability to move and perform daily activities.
Why is a soldier who suffers from severe traumatic burns more susceptible to hypothermia?
Anyone (not only the armed forces) suffering from large areas damaged by burns, lose the natural protection of the skin affected by the burn (which includes damaged muscle and underlying tissue). Fluid loss is one result, and must be replaced. Also, shock can also bring on hypothermia, which is dangerously loss of body heat.
Why do stars look red?
Stars look red because of there large amount of helium that burns up and rises to the surface
How do you treat hypothermia victim?
hypothermia is when YOUR BODY LOOSES HEAT FASTER THAN IT CAN PRODUCE IT. when your body temp drops below 96 degrees F..... THEN you will start to go into the first stage of hypothermia. hypothermia accures when you dont have propper clothing in the winter and u go outside then your body will start to loose heat faster than it can produce it.
What is the importance of large surface cells?
To occupy a large surface.
The surface area of a spherical balloon is 175 cm2 If the length of the radius was six times as large what would the surface area be?
this is funny cause i took an online test with this question
Why do large particles in a rock layer cause less friction than small particles?
Large particles have less total surface area, so caused less friction then the smaller particles do
Is calcium oxide dangerous?
Yes. Calcium oxide is a strong base. It reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide, releasing large amounts of heat. Calcium hydroxide can cause chemical burns.
Why can static electricity be dangerous when its discharged?
The charges that build up on either surface can become quite large. When discharged the current will also be quite large. Large currents can cause severe injury. As an example, lightning is static electricity in action.
Can phosphorus kill you -?
no it is just a foul smelling gas
To what underlying cause do solar scientists attribute the flow pattern in the Sun's surface known as supergranulation?
The effect on the photosphere of a deep tier of large convective cells
What is the primary cause of air mass?
The primary cause of air mass formation is the warming or cooling of a large body of air over a uniform surface for an extended period of time. This results in the air mass taking on the temperature and moisture characteristics of the underlying surface, leading to the development of distinct air masses with specific properties.
