Phosphorus is most commonly found in rock formations and ocean sediments as phosphate salts. Phosphate salts that are released from rocks through weathering usually dissolve in soil water and will be absorbed by plants. Phosphorus cycles through plants and animals much faster than it does through rocks and sediments. Given this information, the answer is;
<u>D. All of the above</u>
Smaller cube (1 cm X 1 cm X 1 cm)
<span>The surface area of one side = 1 cm X 1 cm = 1 <span>cm2</span></span>
<span>There are 6 sides, total SA = 6 X 1 <span>cm2</span> = 6 <span>cm2</span></span>
<span>Volume = 1 cm X 1 cm X 1 cm = 1 cubic cm (1 <span>cm3</span>)</span>
<span>Surface to Volume Ratio = 6 <span>cm2</span>/1 <span>cm3</span> = 6 <span>cm2/cm3</span></span>
Larger cube (6 cm X 6 cm X 6 cm)
<span>The surface area of one side = 6 cm X 6 cm = 36 <span>cm2</span></span>
<span>There are 6 sides, the total SA = 6 X 36 <span>cm2</span> = 216 <span>cm2</span></span>
<span>Volume = 6 cm X 6 cm X 6 cm = 216 <span>cm3</span></span>
<span>Surface to Volume Ratio = 216 <span>cm2</span>/216 <span>cm3</span> = 1 <span>cm2/cm3</span></span>
