Consider two cells (assume they are both spheres): a prokaryotic cell with a diameter of 2 micrometers and a eukaryotic cell with a diameter of 20 micrometers. what is the relationship of the surface to volume (s/v) ratios of these two cells?

the answer is A) The prokaryotic cell's S/V ratio is about 10 times larger than the eukaryotic cell's S/Vratio.

hope this helps
