How does the growth of an organism occur?
Growth of an organism is characterized by an increase in the size of its body. This occurs due to accumulation of food substances in the cells which in turn increases the volume of the protoplasm in the cells. This increase in volume of cells results in growth. However, its necessary to understand the fact that cells do not increase in their volume indefinitely. After a considerable period of time they divide into two through processes such as mitosis. These divided cells again increase in volume and redivide after they become large. Bassicaly, the organism eats and gets nutrients from what it eats which causes it to grow.
Which typically increase faster as a cell grows surface area or volume?
Volume
What is the result of intrapulmonary volume increase?
inspirtation
What happens to lung volume during inspiration?
Chest cavity volume increases during inahalation, and decreases during exhalation.
When and why a cell divides?
cells divide to maintain perfect surface/volume ratio of the body of an organism.
What is the increase in volume that results from an increase in temperature called?
expansion
If the volume and number of moles of gas are held constant as the temperature increase what will the pressure do?
The volume decrease.

expand
How can an Amoeba pic be giant?
it is a very small organism and can not be giant but it can increase its volume when kept in fresh water but that is up to some extent.
