The surface area to volume ratio of the cell decreases.
This decrease is due to the fact that the volume of the cell increases at a greater rate than the surface surrounding the cell, the cell membrane, increases. This change is also visible when we are blowing up a balloon.
When considering the cell division, the ratio remains roughly the same. It is advantageous for the cell to preserve its surface area to volume ratio, since a higher ratio means that substances are able to diffuse into and out of the cell at a fairly higher rate.
Answer:
Only some species may survive the event
Explanation:
Evolution is most likely to occur when catastrophic events alter community composition. Catastrophic global event can influence that only the hardiest, generalist species may survive. Specialists may be left without food and starve.
Answer: Independent variable is what is being modified, it is important to compare it to your control group, (which is the original).
Dependent variable is what is being measured, to compare it to the control group to see if your hypothesis works or not.
Explanation: Here's a(n) example:
Bob wanted to take a mint with a mint drop, and he wanted to measure if it can make his breath fresher, but he also wanted to take it with a regular mint to see which is the freshest breath.
Independent variable: Mint drop.
Dependent Variable: Breath (To see if it is going to change with a mint drop.)
Control Group- Regular mint.
Answer: The hormones controlling the female reproductive system include gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and leutenizing hormone (LH), all of which are produced in the brain; oestrogen and progesterone produced by the ovaries and the corpus luteum; and human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG
