Answer: There doesn't appear to be a single best answer to this type of question. But if we're proposing simple shapes as answers, then a proportionally very thin film (like a sheet of paper) seems serve adequately.
From what I have seen and gather, shapes with long length and width and a short depth would have a bigger surface area compared to its volume. in addition, shapes like cubes and spheres will have a greater volume for their surface area.
The surface-area-to-volume ratio may be calculated as follows: -- Find the surface area of the shape. -- Find the volume of the shape. -- Divide the surface area by the volume. The quotient is the surface-area-to-volume ratio.
The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder.
C- The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder
You measure or calculate the surface area; you measure or calculate the volume and then you divide the first by the second. The surface areas and volumes will, obviously, depend on the shape.
The surface-area-to-volume ratio also called the surface-to-volume ratio and variously denoted sa/volor SA:V, is the amount of surface area per unit volume of an object or collection of objects. The surface-area-to-volume ratio is measured in units of inverse distance. A cube with sides of length a will have a surface area of 6a2 and a volume of a3. The surface to volume ratio for a cube is thus shown as .For a given shape, SA:V is inversely proportional to size. A cube 2 m on a side has a ratio of 3 m−1, half that of a cube 1 m on a side. On the converse, preserving SA:V as size increases requires changing to a less compact shape.
A sphere has the lowest surface area to volume ratio of all geometric shapes. This is because the sphere is able to enclose the largest volume with the smallest surface area due to its symmetrical shape.
If the cell has a simple geometric shape, there are formulae that can be used. Otherwise you need to measure the surface area and the volume.
The surface-area-to-volume ratio may be calculated as follows: -- Find the surface area of the shape. -- Find the volume of the shape. -- Divide the surface area by the volume. The quotient is the surface-area-to-volume ratio.
To obtain the ratio of surface area to volume, divide the surface area by the volume.
The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder.
The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder (APEX)
C- The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder
to obtain the ratio of surface area to volume, divide the surface area by the volume.
As the cell gets bigger, the surface to volume ratio gets smaller.
As volume increases surface area increase, but the higher the volume the less surface area in the ratio. For example. A cube 1mmx1mmx1mm has volume of 1mm3 surface area of 6mm2 which is a ration of 1:6 and a cube of 2mmx2mmx2mm has a volume of 8mm3 and surface area of 24mm2 which is a ratio of 1:3.
As the cell gets bigger, the surface to volume ratio gets smaller.
0.6 is the surface area to volume ratio.
