Breaking down of large macromolecules to monomers is known as catabolism. More the substance is broken down, larger its surface area gets. A particle with more surface area can be easily be metabolized by our body. Enzymes can act with full tendency on particles that have larger surface area and then an be easily digested and absorbed by out boy.

How does the surface area of a cube change if the length of each side is doubled?
The surface area is quadrupled.
Does the surface area change in the same proportion?
Yes.
How can two cylinders have the same surface area but different volume?
Change in height and circumference
How to show that the rate of change of the volume of a cube with respect to the length of its edges is equal to have the surface area of the cube?
If the length of an edge is x, the volume is x3 To find the rate of change of the volume with respect to x, differentiate: d(x3)/dx = 3x2 The area of one face is x2 There are six faces so the total surface area is 6x2 Therefore the rate of change of volume, 3x2 , is half of 6x2 , the surface area.
What is the surfqace area of a cylinder?
It is the surface area of the two ends plus the surface area of the curved surface. Surface area of each end is pir2 Surface area of the curved surface is 2pirh Total surface area = 2pir2 + 2pirh
