What makes up the surface area of a cell?
The cell membrane.
What organelles inside the cell have membranes with many convolution and why?
The mitochondria has a membrane with many convolutions because it increases the surface area for ATP synthesis
What is cell volume?
The volume is how much space is inside the cell. The ratio is the surface area divided by the volume. This indicates how much surface area is available compared to how big the cell is.
In liver cells the inner motochodrial membranes are about 5x the area of the outer mitochondrial membranes and about 17x that of the cell's plasma membrane what purpose must this serve?
It increases the surface for oxidative phosphoryation.
What happens to the surface of the cell as the volume of the cell increases?
The surface area decreases. your a lier dude
What is the advantage of having a folded membrane surrounding the cell or within the cytoplasm or within organelles?
It increases the surface area of the cell membrane. By having more surface area, more matter can be moved in and out of the cell.
How has red blood cell adapted to membrane surface area?
The red blood cell's biconcave shape increases its surface area for diffusion. The lack of a nucleus makes this shape possible.
What increases the membrane surface in an animal cell?
525,600 minutes
If the volume of a cell increases its surface area will?
it increases
As a cell increases in size the a. metabolic rate increases. b. surface area to volume ratio increases. c. volume increases and the surface area increases. d. surface area increases and the volume d?
As a cell increases in size the volume increases much faster than the surface area. The possible answer is C.
What is the advantage of having a folded inner membrane in the mitochondria?
The folded inner membrane of the mitochondria greatly increases the surface area of the membrane so that carbohydrates (simple sugars) can combine with oxygen to produce ATP.
What are folds of the cell membrane on the free surface?
The folds of the cell membrane on the free surface are known as microvilli. These folds will help in increasing the surface area of the cell membrane.
What makes up the surface area of a cell?
The cell membrane.
Is as cell surface area increases cell volume increases faster true?
Yes
What organelles inside the cell have membranes with many convolution and why?
The mitochondria has a membrane with many convolutions because it increases the surface area for ATP synthesis
What is cell volume?
The volume is how much space is inside the cell. The ratio is the surface area divided by the volume. This indicates how much surface area is available compared to how big the cell is.
If the sides of a cell double in length its surface area becomes?
As a cell grows its volume increases more than its surface area. Cells are limited in size because of the cell membrane As the cell gets bigger the outside is unable to keep up with its inside. Because of this, when the length doubles the surface area gets 4 times larger.
