The surface is made up of many small wrinkled folds which increases the surface area.


What happens to the surface area to volume ratio when folds are made in a cell's outer membrane?

The surface area to volume ratio increases when folds are made in a cell's outer membrane. This increase allows for more efficient exchange of materials with the surroundings because there is more surface area available for interactions.


What is the significance folds of inner membrane of mitochondria?

The folds in the inner membrane of the mitochondria are called cristae. They serve to provide a greater surface area for the proton-pump through which protons pass down their concentration gradient through ATP synthase to produce ATP in cellular respiration.

How does the surface area affect buoyancy?

Surface area affects buoyancy because the larger the surface area, the greater the buoyant force that is created. This is because a larger surface area allows for more water displacement, which in turn increases the buoyancy force acting on the object. Conversely, a smaller surface area results in less water displaced and therefore less buoyant force.
