In what way is the surface area more important for cells than volume?
For example, the amount of nutrients a cell can absorb are proportional to its surface area.
Why surface area important?
All chemical reactions take place on surfaces = so very important
Why is it important that the surface of the solar panel has a large area?
so it can get more sun
Why is it important to maximize the surface area to volume ratio?
It is not always the case. If you are out in the cold with insufficient clothing, the important thing - to prevent hypothermia - is to MINIMISE the surface to volume ratio.
Why is high surface area to volume ratio important to fungus?
Fungi make their food via absorption, and a large surface area makes nutrient absorption extremely efficient.
An adaptation to increase the surface area of a part of a cell that is involved in cellular respiration?
Microvilli are small protrusions found on the surface of cells, particularly in the intestines and kidneys, that increase surface area for absorption. These structures contain enzymes and transport proteins important for cellular respiration.
Why is increased surface area important in the small intestines?
Simply put, larger surface area allows for more digestive process to occur.
Why is surface are important for living things?
Area*
Why is it important that the gills of a crayfish give them a large surface area?
It is important that the gills of a crayfish give them a large surface area because it helps the crayfish to breathe. The bigger the surface area, the more oxygen in the crayfishes system.Ê
What is the definition of cell surface area?
The surface area of a cell is defined as the total area encompassing the perimeter of the outer cell layer. The surface area of a cell is an important part of the Surface Area to Volume Ratio in terms of the effect it has on molecules that are entering or exit the cell.
In what way is the surface area more important for cells than volume?
For example, the amount of nutrients a cell can absorb are proportional to its surface area.
How is surface area important?
Surface area affects several things, such as how quickly an object cools down; the rate of chemical reactions will also depend on the exposed area.
Differences between bovine and sheep external morphology of the kidney?
Bovine kidneys are larger and have a smooth surface, while sheep kidneys are smaller and have a lobulated surface. Bovine kidneys have longer renal papillae compared to sheep kidneys. Sheep kidneys have a more triangular shape compared to the more elongated shape of bovine kidneys.
Why is large surface area important in our small intestines?
You can't absorb that which doesn't make contact with the surface.
Why is it important that an intestine cell has a folded surface?
Because it increases the surface area available for transfer of materials.
The convolusions seen in the cerebrum are important because they increase the?
surface area
Why size is important?
because the surface area does not grow as fast as the organellles
