What else can I help you with?
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 increases the surface area of the brain?
The convolutions in the brain increase surface area. In simpler words, those lines and ridges in the brain are what increases the surface area.
What adaptations do the villi in the small intestine have?
the villi have very thin walls which makes it easy for it to absorb the nutrients, and also it has microvilli on the surface of the villi which greatly increases the surface area of which nutrients can be absorbed
What happens to surface area when rocks are broken into smaller pieces?
As a substance is broken, the surface area greatly increases. For example a 2 meter cube has a total surface area of 24 square meters. If a 1 meter cube is cut out of one corner, the total surface area is now 30 square meters.
What is the advantage of having a folded inner membrane in the mitochondria?
The folded inner membrane of the mitochondria, known as cristae, increases the surface area available for cellular respiration reactions. This allows for more efficient production of ATP, the cell's primary energy source.
As the length of a cell increases its volume increases faster than its?
surface area. This is due to the volume increasing cubically as the length increases, while the surface area only increases squared. This can lead to issues with nutrient and waste exchange in larger cells.
How does the surface area to volume ratio change as the cell size increases?
It decreases. As the dimensions increase by a number, the surface area increases by the same number to the power of 2, but the volume increases by the same number to the power of 3, meaning that the volume increases faster than the surface area.
What happens to a cell ratio of surface area to volume as the cells volume increases rapidly than its surface area?
The cell's ratio of surface area to volume would decrease if its volume increases more rapidly than its surface area.
Why does crushing help a solid solute dissolve?
The rate of dissolution of a solid is dependent on the surface area reaction. By crushing the cube, the surface area is greatly increased, thus increasing the rate of dissolution.
Sliding friction increases if the of the sliding object increases.?
Surface area
How many neurons and intestinal cells each have greatly increased surface area?
Neurons have greatly increased surface area due to their dendrites and axons. Intestinal cells have greatly increased surface area due to microvilli on the surface of the cells that help in absorption of nutrients.
What increases the surface área of the small intestine?
The surface is made up of many small wrinkled folds which increases the surface area.
