What are the characteristics of respiratory surface?
large area
Do leaves have a low or high surface area to volume ratio?
high
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.
How do leaves have a wide surface area?
they have a wide surface area so they can absorb maximum light energy from the sun in order for the process photosynthesis to occur Hope this helps! :)
Why have leaves a large flat surface?
The flat surface area of leaves are just because leaves have a function to perforn i.e. photosynthesis and the flat area increases the availability of sunlight which is a mandatory reuirement for the process.
Does the leaf have a large or small surface area to volume ratio?
the surface area of LEAVES depends. Pine needles and cacti have small surface areas banana leaves, philodendron leaves, and other tropical plants have gigantic ones. it all depends on where the plants are endemic to.
What do the large flat leaves do for a lily pad?
The leaves on a water lily give a large surface area for photosynthesis as much of the rest of the plant is underwater.
Why do some plants have large broad leaves?
To maximise the surface area for photosynthesis, plants increase the size of their leaves
Why is the large surface area of leaves advantageous to plants?
because it have sex with the ovary and sperm cell gets in.
Why does banana grow healthy even it has few leaves?
Yes, banana has few leaves, but those leaves are very large. So the surface area of the leaves are basically the same as any other tree.
11 Most anthophyte leaves are thin with a large surface area This structure enhances the plant's ability to?
take in water
Why do leaves have a big surface area?
leaves have a big surface area because then they can absorb all the possible light energy they can for photosynthesis.
Why are leaves wide?
Leaves are wide to maximize their surface area for capturing sunlight which is essential for photosynthesis. The larger surface area helps in the exchange of gases and water vapor needed for the plant's survival. The width of leaves also enables efficient absorption of water and nutrients from the environment.
How can plants reduce their surface area of their leaves?
by curling them (:
Are iris leaves good for compost?
Almost any leaves can be used for compost. If they are large, I would advise shredding them up into smaller pieces as this will increase surface area and decompose at a faster rate.
How does the large surface area of the leaf help it photosynthesise?
For most plants, but not all, the leaves are the main place where energy is trapped from the sun. The leaves have a broad surface (flat shape) to catch as much of the sun as they can.
