So it is more efficient.
Leaves are broad, thin and flat to provide a large surface area, to absorb sunlight for photosynthesis. :)
large area
Roots are provided with a large surface area through their extensive branching and the development of root hairs. The branching allows roots to spread out and explore a greater volume of soil, while root hairs, which are tiny extensions of root cells, increase the surface area for water and nutrient absorption. Together, these adaptations enhance the plant's ability to efficiently take up essential resources from the soil.
The Alveoli
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.
they spread out and cover a large surface area which helps the roots take in water from the soil more quickly.
it will spread it out across the large surface area therefore decreasing it. hope that helps! :)
Temperature, pressure, catalyst, surface area
Sugar is small crystal powder, thus each sugar crystal has large surface area which causes rapid reaction in presence of catalyst. This reaction produces a lot of heat, as a whole, that it causes sugar to burn.
Porcelain chips are used as a catalyst for the dehydration of ethanol because the rough surface of the chips provides a large surface area for the reaction to occur, allowing for more contact between the reactants and catalyst. This helps to enhance the rate of the dehydration reaction and improve the overall efficiency of the process.
Surface area? That will vary considerably. The smallest surface area will be if the water is suspended weightless, in the shape of a sphere. It could be in a pan 1/16 of an inch deep. Specify the shape you are interested in.
your weight is spread on a large surface area so the pressure will not be as large as if you sat on one pin.

Gauze is often used as a catalyst support in chemical reactions because it provides a large surface area and helps distribute reactants evenly. The porous nature of gauze also allows for good gas flow, aiding in the efficiency of the reaction.
Higher surface area is available for the chemical reaction.
The BET surface area can be used in catalyst manufacturing for the determination of adsorption of of gas (isotherm), pore volume, distribution of pore size.
