Why Does the surface area affects the ability to get materials in and out of the cell?

Because to get in and out you have to cross the cell's surface and if it has a bigger area more can happen than with a smaller area. To increase the surface area volume ratio, the cell can reduce in size or change its shape.

How does the vegetation growing in an area affect the winds ability to modify the surface of earth?
The wind is an agent of erosion. The vegetation growing in an area affects the ability of the wind to modify the surface of the Earth by holding the soil in place, thus preventing erosion.
How does the vegetation's growing in an area affect the winds ability to modify the surface of earth?

How are some cells modified to increase their ability to absorb materials?
The surface area can be increased so that it can absorb more materials. The microvilli protrude from the epithelial cells lining.
How does the surface area of a mitochondrion or chloroplast affects its energy output?
increased surface area, increases output
How does surface area work?
It would help if the question was less obscure. What do you mean by "work"? How the surface area affects chemical processes (for example the surface area of catalysts), or diffusion, or surface areas and friction?
What affects the heat loss from objects?
colour, shape, surface area
How does surface area affect air resistance?
air resistance affects
How does surface area affect collision rate?
Surface area affects collision rate because the larger the surface area the more air resistance is acting on it, therefor a larger surface area can slow down collision rate.
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.
How does the shape surface area and volume affect how fast magma cools?
The shape affects the ratio of surface area to volume. The greater the surface are to volume ratio, the faster the magma will cool.
How surface area affects heat loss?
Increasing the Surface Area increases the heat loss. You will find a nice example in the related question link below.
How does surface area to volume ration influence cell size?
Surface size directly affects the possibility for gas exchange. Volume affects how much the cell can contain. If a cell has a large volume and a small surface area, it will be able to keep in water easily. But if it needs outside gas input for its reactions, the small surface area may be a limiting factor.
