Question

2. What does a surface area/volume ratio of 6:1 mean for the cell’s ability to get the materials it needs that move across its surface?

Answer 1

Answer;

-A surface area/volume ratio of 6:1 means the cell's ability to get materials it needs that move across its surface is very efficient.

-Increased surface area to volume ratio makes diffusion and osmosis much more effective. Cellular concentrations of ions, nutrients, salts, etc can occur much more quickly and efficiently.

Step-by-step explanation;

-The surface area to volume ratio of a cell is the relationship between two measurements.That is; the ratio of Surface area to volume. It shows the comparison between the size of the outside of a cell and the amount inside. Small or thin cells have a large surface area compared to the volume.

Answer 2

It depends on the unit of the ratio 6:1. If it is in cm−1, then it means that it is similar to a cell of size 1 cm^3,
which is normally too big to get materials from the surface
